Yeah id imagine it would be hard to control. All im saying is if we let z club turn up it opens up to later models like z32/r32/s13 as these are the next models after what we deem acceptable age models on the cruises. not my call though i aint in the comittee

Definitely see where you are coming from :) I won't bother this time but I'll keep it in mind for the next one. The Z Club in Auckland quite often do interclub things - mainly with the Mini Club they do night trials. More cars, more people, most of the time more fun.

I knew that gtr wouldve been brought up. dont worry about me tho. just my personal opinion. Im not the rule enforcer. Talk to Bart he,s the Boss. Im not even going on this cruise. I dont think its a really great cruise for Datsuns. I ride my 1966 50cc scooter on the same route with a doz other scooters and for us its great as we can tap them out and enjoy the corners. I remember doing this cruise in Lewis,s 180B and it sucked as you cant pin it around corners as they are so narrow.

Hah, it's all good - not trying to ruffle any feathers. I'll see you guys on the 3rd, might have something new to show off as well if things don't turn to crap like they usually do.

Just a tongue in cheek dig at James, who is actually a great guy. IMHO.
I see inter-club as something completely different, where the line is of who is welcome and who isn't on Datsun Cruises is a good question and one the comity will need to look at. Maybe smaller cruises like this one, Hanmer and the numbers we had to the first Southern Cruise mean it would benefit the community to have others invited or adding to the cruise and we can be a bit more precious about Akouroa, having it a Datsun Only cruise, (Although I have seen a certain Toyota on that at one stage as I recall).
Great question Dan, Maybe the answer is different for members and non-members as it were. If you are regularly on cruises in your Datsun, it's ok to show up in your Nissan?

I took a gamble with you James.
Sometimes it pays off, sometimes it doesn't. :lol:
