Looks like a run, time trail and party over a weekend in November.
Starts in the Yarra Valley, Holden Proving Ground and then a closed section on the great ocean road between lorne and apollo bay

Regardless of the GOR thing (which sounds like fun) anyone else coming to the June 23 run? Should be fun!

Why not put a post in the main 911 forum?
I see a bunch of messages from people oranising
runs in various places over there.
I only started reading the regional fourum recently,
before that I only read the 911 forum, there may be
other melbourne guys not reading here.

Ive just put this run in my diary.

Thanks
I might contact them for the details.

All I can find are articles from local residents complaining about closing the road

Let us know what you find. I was told last night at the PCV meeting that the Porsche center were organising it but there's nothing on their web site.

Doncaster Shopping Centre is undergoing some serious car park construction/ building works, so we may have to think of another meeting place - what do people think?
