SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 17TH, 2013

- TAHUNA PARK, VICTORIA ROAD, DUNEDIN

- 9AM-5PM

- RAIN OR SHINE

ABOUT/PAST EVENTS

I came up with the idea for this after my mother passed away from cancer while in the Hospice in 2008. The aim of the event is primarily to raise as much money for the Otago Community Hospice as possible, to say thanks. http://www.otagohospice.co.nz

- In 2010\'s event, we raised $2,235.50 for the hospice, with just 155 cars on a rainy day, and with the event ending three hours early!

- In 2011\'s event, we raised $1,401.90 for the hospice, with only 75 cars on an even rainier day than 2010!

- In 2012\'s event, we raised $2,730.00 for the hospice, with 137+ cars on yet another wet day!

It\'s great to see expensive/really tidy cars turning up and cruising even when it\'s raining, like Ferrari\'s, Porsches, late model Mustangs and so on.

HOW WE RAISE THE MONEY

By charging each driver and each passenger a minimum \'compulsory\' donation of $5 (higher amounts are encouraged if you can afford it) to enter the cruise. And gold coin entry fee (\'donation\') for members of the public at the opening of the car show at 1pm.

BASIC ITINERARY AND NEED TO KNOW DETAILS

- Pay money to officials (passengers need to pay $5 or more too)

- Sign a disclaimer form, so we aren\'t liable for anything you do

- Get a small sticker put on your car to show you\'ve paid (any cars that arrive back from the cruise without a sticker will have to pay)

- Line up and park where directed

- Do above cruise route. Drive safely, its not a race!

- Arrive back before 1pm for food/car show etc.

- Five trophies will be available to hand out for cars on display after the cruise, best Japanese, American, European, Australian and British cars.

ELIGIBLE CARS

All exotic cars (Ferrari, Aston Martin, Porsche, Lamborghini, Maserati, Lotus, TVR, Mercedes and so on). All muscle cars (FPV/Tickford and HSV/HDT etc cars, Corvette, Camaro, Mustang etc). Classic cars (Shelby, Jaguar, Mini, Rover, Triumph and so on). Hot rods. Sports trucks/SUVs (Dodge Ram, Ford Territory Turbo, Ford F250 etc). Japanese sports cars (Skyline, Supra, RX-7, WRX, EVO, NSX, S2000, GTO, 300zx/350z/370Z and so on). Japanese \'old school\' classics (Pre R30 Skylines, Prince models, DX Corolla, AE86, RX3 and so on). Vintage cars (Model T Ford, Daimler and so on). Race cars/track cars (if not road legal then tow them on the cruise on the trailer!).

If your car doesn\'t fall into any of those categories, does it have any aftermarket modifications (bigger wheels, bodykit, fancy paintwork, rare factory bodykit and so on)? If thats a yes, you can bring it along too - even if it is a 4WD/people carrier (so long as they aren\'t standard looking!).

This is also the perfect opportunity to get those prized treasures out of the garage, the ones that very seldom get seen by the public eye. You\'ll possibly have a slightly bigger chance to win a trophy and prize pack for doing so!

ENTER YOUR CAR CLUB

This event is a great chance for recruiting new members! We\'ll even allow you to set up wee stalls etc around the edge of the grounds so you can have somewhere for people to learn more about your club and join up!

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
