    Hey guys,

    Today we had what hopefully will the first of many organized runs for SE Queensland. We had a few late pullouts but had an awesome day with the cars. We started off at Brett's Wharf and headed through the Inner-city Bypass tunnels, what an awesome noise!!!! I was travelling in Gekko's 430 spider whilst the 2 Gallardo's were bringing up the rear until Dave got excited and flew past us. Going to take a video camera next time. We headed out through Samford and up to Mount Mee. There are some awesome corners up Mt Mee, Gekko leading the charge and Fortis following very closely in his Gallardo. Dave may have had a handbrake in place but was looking good from all reports before he left Chewy7 for dead. We stopped for lunch at Maleny and had a great feed and even though we were in the middle of nowhere the cars still pulled a crowd. After a little blast by Dave on his exit we headed off down towards the Bruce Highway for a awesome drive back to Brisbane.

    Here are some photos, I'm sure there will be some more from the other guys.

    Cameron might know, but I heard 3. It has been discontinued. Not sure why - it is a nice shade.

    As far as I know, there are 2 and the other one has a black interior. But you never know. Hopefully next run we should have a silver one as well!

    That would put Adelaide to shame. Here there are 5 G's that I know of - mine and 4 black ones.

    Toady was a f'ken awesome day! Best Sunday ive ever had :D Thanks alot for inviting us along Cam, was a magic day. Ive never followed a F-car or L-car on public roads, the pace is just blistering! I was behind you guys, then 2 seconds later you guys have disappeared into the distance! The road holding and pace is just mind boggling, far out. Me and Neilo got some great shots, I’ll edit them and uploading them tonight.

    Again a big thank you for letting us tag along, it was an experience! That section going through the tunnel, holy ****, what a note! :D :D :D

    We were saying that today, that there isn't a colour the G doesn't look great in, but that comes with a great shape.

    I think you'll find that one was sold a while back now. But that makes one yellow and 5 black ones. Nothing like a bit of variety...

    Nah Pap they pick sedate colours as Lambo draw more attention the Ferrari's to start with so you don't really need a loud colour :p
