Edited By: Ludecrs

Hi All,

As you may or may not know by now on the 11th,12th and 13th of April 2009. 212 S2000's gathered in Trentino, Italy to celebrate the end of production of the S2000.

Not to be out done by our European counterparts a similar event is being organised for an Australian wide meet to be organised for Honda S2000 owners.

Please note, we are organising a billeting system where owners from WA, SA and NT who wish to fly as the drive may be too much for them.

The itinerary planned includes Social meet and greets over drinks, Go-Karting, Dinner function, two drive sessions and Accomodation at the Novotel Pacifc Bay Resort Coffs Harbour

When - 23th, 24th, 25th October 2009
Where - Coffs Harbour

This is an event not to be missed.

Way to far :P If our car scene was anything like in the states I'd defiantly go.

[ludecrs]

Too far?

Your soft. There's about a dozen of us coming down from Brisbane.

I've just stickied this because OzHonda needs a thread detailing the S2000 AusMeet.

I'm From Melbourne -_-

[ludecrs]

Brisbane to Sydney is 965KM
Melbourne to Sydney is 870KM.


You guys, are soft.

[vyets]

? Last time I checked Coffs Harbor is close to Brisbane..
1408km away from Melbourne..

Unless the meet changed to being in sydney?

[ludecrs]

im going...i reckon it will be a good drive...plus the girlfriend wants to have a weekend away lol

how long do you think the drive will be from Melb to Coffs Harbour? Google is telling me 16 hours :O

It'd be about 15 hours from Melbourne, but I don't think it's that bad a drive. I used to drive interstate often in the S2000 for several hours at a time, including several non-stop Sydney-Brisbane (12 hours) and Canberra-Brisbane (15 hours) trips. From Melbourne, I would drive up to Sydney the night before and stay there the night - perhaps some of the Sydney crew would be kind enough to allow a few folks to stay the night - before heading up to Coffs from Sydney in the afternoon with the Sydney crew. It'll be a great drive, and we may not ever meet like this again; it'd be a shame if you missed it.

Would love to see more Victorians at the meet.

Sounds about right, gotta remember that doesn't including stopping resting etc. That's solid 16 hours of driving, then 16 hours back. Could consider that your "weekend away"
My cars just not comfortable enough for a 32 hour drive, for me or the missus
