The
Great Ocean Road |
A trip
down Victoria's Great Ocean Road - April 2001
|
|
|
Sit
back and relive the great day that was our Great Ocean Road outing.
|
|
|
The
first people to meet up were Rick and Andrew before driving off
to the meeting point.
|
|
|
|
About
to head off.
|
|
|
|
Off
we go.
|
|
|
|
Probes

Someone
(me) was real hungry, so we stopped in Geelong so I could feed
my face. Thanks guys.

Here
we are following close up behind a WRX. He couldn't shake us even
though he tried. To be fair to him though, he did have two other
people in the car and I don't think he really knew how make the
most of the beast he was driving. In any case, we all had a heap
of fun chasing him as I'm sure he had fun trying to outrun us.
It was just after this corner that I got the car totally sideways
being too busy taking this shot to see just how sharp the upcoming
corner was.

|
We
stop to enjoy the beautiful Victorian coastal view. And a few
pics.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Stopping
for a scenic pic or ten.
|
|
|
|
Rick
right up close behind me.
|
|
|
|
|
The
likely lads.
|
Andrew
This
guy sure knows how to handle a car. If anyone gave the WRX hell,
it was him. He just blasted off in to the distance and left him
eating dust. He did this in car with stock ride height, stock wheels
and an auto transmission. Andrew, you're a legend.
|
|
|
|
Michael
With
two other people along for the ride, Michael was looking for fun,
and fun is what he had. This was also his first Probe club meet.
Welcome aboard.
|
|
|
|
Jerry
This
car was the star of the day. Jerry showed us his superb FX body
kit and 18" TSW wheels. Nice one Jerry. I know how much hard
work he put into his car.
|
|
|
|
Rick
To
add a bit of spice to the meet, Rick brought his MX6 along. If Andrew
was a madman through the bends, Rick was Mr Smooth. Rick sure knows
how to handle his MX6.
|
|
|
|
Bob
Bob
loved his purple Probe so much, he bought another one. Only problem
he had was which one to bring along. Why decide? he thought, so
he brought both along. His wife Pat drove the purple one while he
drove the red one. Both of them class acts.
|
|
|
|
Me
Ummm,
this is me and...this is my car.
|
|

Stopping
for another break.

Jerry
tells Andrew a bit about his wild FX Probe.

Many
thanks to Rick for the use of some of the above pics.
