Peter John Posted 23October, 2017 Report Posted 23October, 2017 hi guys- SC driver that seems to be blowing off steam by a cruise around wherever in the east and abouts at any chance! I’ve been out the past 3 nights for an hour or two or three when the kids are in bed- for a coffee, a highway, and a curvy road or two. Anyone up for a spontaneous drive tonight? And if not another time. Love a school night drive- less traffic- doesn’t have to be long or far just some time in a porsche. I’m heading out in an hour from Warrandyte
Andy73 Posted 23October, 2017 Report Posted 23October, 2017 Can’t make tonight but up for a spin sometime - just need to balance around domestic duties. PM me Mate.

Peter John Posted 25October, 2017 Author Report Posted 25October, 2017 I'd be up for a drive one night tooKeep me postedCool- thinking when this typical Melbourne weather gives us a good day again, will post a note here and go from there. Amazing how you can go here, there, and everywhere around Melbourne in a couple of hours without the traffic #getoutanddrive
D-banger Posted 25October, 2017 Report Posted 25October, 2017 Is the nocturnal wild life a concern for early evening drives?
Andy73 Posted 26October, 2017 Report Posted 26October, 2017 Is the nocturnal wild life a concern for early evening drives?It is for me. I've always been a bit cautious around that very issue. With daylight savings there's some time between the traffic easing off and rabbits, roos, foxes etc coming out to play.I'd be more inclined to stick a bit more metro for the evening drives personally.
P-Kay Posted 26October, 2017 Report Posted 26October, 2017 'reckon you'll get more punters if local too......
hugh Posted 26October, 2017 Report Posted 26October, 2017 I'd be more inclined to stick a bit more metro for the evening drives personally.Fast & the Furious style. Then we can find a car park and eat kebabs.
Ozvino Posted 26October, 2017 Report Posted 26October, 2017 Is the nocturnal wild life a concern for early evening drives?Yep, be cautious, as someone who has hit a Kangaroo in a Porsche can tell you; luckily I was travelling at "brisk pace"and the kangaroo went up the bonnet, over the windscreen and roof, but it was still scary and did a decent amount of damage. His head exploded on the windscreen and the brain matter and fluid blinded me for a good 20 seconds
Andy73 Posted 26October, 2017 Report Posted 26October, 2017 Fast & the Furious style. Then we can find a car park and eat kebabs. I've got a line of blue LED's lying around somewhere. I'll run them around the undercarriage of my car to get the full boy racer look. Or maybe it's time to go RWB on my 964.

nytelfer Posted 26October, 2017 Report Posted 26October, 2017 I had a sharp reminder of the wildlife risk in the outer eastern suburbs of Melbourne recently - it was dusk on a wet Saturday on the road between Panton Hill and St.Andrews and I spotted a large kangaroo on the edge of the road so braked heavily such that I was only travelling at circa 30kph as I passed him on my LHS - the moment I passed with less than a metre clearance, he took off across the road directly behind me into the front of a Subaru Outback travelling in the opposite direction!
TrevMcRev Posted 26October, 2017 Report Posted 26October, 2017 I'm in for future Knight Rider action.
JB Posted 26October, 2017 Report Posted 26October, 2017 Evenings probably the only time I can get out with the business!!!
Peter John Posted 26October, 2017 Author Report Posted 26October, 2017 Is the nocturnal wild life a concern for early evening drives?great point! I’m just outside Warrandyte so not too bad, but plan wouldn’t be all out in the woods roads. It is for me. I've always been a bit cautious around that very issue. With daylight savings there's some time between the traffic easing off and rabbits, roos, foxes etc coming out to play.I'd be more inclined to stick a bit more metro for the evening drives personally.yeah Andy a couple of windy roads then freeway bit of around the bay, coffee and just a general drive in our cars across the city without traffic.
Andy73 Posted 26October, 2017 Report Posted 26October, 2017 You owe me a 10 sec car. I'm all about making it LOOK fast Hugh. Then I can stand around talking about how fast it is. I’m going shopping for a fully sik BOVhttp://www.mechanicalcaveman.com/best-sounding-bov-blow-off-valve-noise-review/Install the zork https://instagram.com/p/BVWWF_DB0ex/Good to go #boostedI can't believe i actually watched one of the youtube vids on that blow off valve review.
