Sorry guys I won't make the cruise - got a mystery coolant leak and will be stuck without transport until I find the cause.

In the mean time I'll be at the track, eagerly awaiting drivers briefing - where is it??? Is it going to be at the Mini Challenge marquee?

Pom Down Under · Jun 8th, 2008, 11:14 AM

It was a great day, even of the cruise only took in Springvale Rd

looks like you've bumped the exposure compensation down 1/3 stop, so they're all quite dark. some cool pics there though

rellik666 · Jun 10th, 2008, 05:47 AM

I have no idea what you are talking about......LOL......still learning what all the buttons do and having a play with my photo editing software! But thanks for your comment!

MickyD · Jun 10th, 2008, 06:16 AM

I've no idea how you change it on a Nikon, but the EXIF data definately shows that you've adjusted it.

look at the bottom of this page for how to change it: Nikon D50 Review: 6. Operation & Controls:

you've got it set at -1/3

Cheers Micky........I was playing with things to see what they did! Must have forgotten to turn it off!

Hi all,

Finally back in Adelaide after discovering the leak the hard way (water pump - had a beautiful water feature coming out from the front pulley).

Can't say enough thanks for the day. Was great to see the support for the ClubMINI members from the series, and how open and accessable all of the teams and drivers are.

rellik666 · Jun 12th, 2008, 12:37 AM

Glad you enjoyed yourself! Was surprisingly open!

rellik666 · Jun 18th, 2008, 04:42 AM

Hi All!

This Sunday sees the ClubMINI Great Ocean Rd Run!

We hope to have a great turnout and would love to see you come along!

The two meeting points are Point Cook Rd Shell Services and Town & Country Shopping Centre Warne Ponds, Geelong! 6:45 and 7:30 respectively.

I know it is an early start but we are doing a round trip through Apollo Bay and back along the ocean rd!

Everybody welcome.......see you there!

Roo

jords · Jun 21st, 2008, 08:59 AM

Is this run open to anyone, or just members? I'm not a member, but as this would be my first run, I would like to tag along with you guys,.

Any idea what time you expect to be back in Melbourne?

Thanks

rellik666 · Jun 22nd, 2008, 11:59 PM

Well even with the weather and well everybody knows what else...an excellent day was had by all I hope!

With a few "mishaps"

, the Great Ocean rd 2008 run will have a few stories to tell!

Anyhow, to all those that attended.....I hope you had a great time and thanks for Turning out!

To those that didn't......well.....you missed a great day!

And to the residents of Gellibrand and Apollo Bay! Sorry for taking over...but we hope we added a bit of colour to your weekend!

Well here are some pictures from the day...sorry about the rubbish ones that slipped in!

im_dave · Jun 23rd, 2008, 01:55 AM

Great pics.

Sounds like you guys had a great day!

Spotted GR8MNI on Mooroobool st in Geelong city centre about 2pm. Pity I had to work that day!

rellik666 · Jun 24th, 2008, 10:51 PM

Hi Everyone,

NEXT Event - 20th July - Vernon Run, Followed by Christmas in July

Greetings all;

I finally had some time and was at home long enough to upload some photos of the Great Ocean Road run.

They may be found here:

Sorry for the somewhat dubious quality - my camera is far more capable than I am!

PS - the MINI is in to get an M7 Strut Brace and M7 Under Strut System fitted today - it will be interesting to see what effect they have on the cabrio's handling

Cheers,

rellik666 · Jun 30th, 2008, 10:28 PM

Great Pictures Tony!

Glad you enjoyed the day! Nice to see so many MINI's together!

I have just ordered my GTT braces, so we will be able to compare at some point!

Hope they have the desired effect!
