The year is coming to a close again, so lets celebrate it with a cruise! Join us for one of our biggest social events of the year and a great way to meet other club members. This year, the cruise will be heading off from Queensland Raceway after Happy Laps and haivng a scenic drive past the Wyralong Dam. Our midway stopping point will be alongside the Beaudesert Show Society, allowing us to regroup before heading off through hte mountain roads of Beechmont. Our cruise will end at the lovely Beechmont Hotel for lunch.
A Google map route for the cruise is available here:

Still looking for more? We're also going to be hosting an after-cruise run down to Springbrook and back north on some very excellent, technical mountain roads. Feel free to come along after lunch if you're keen for some more driving!

This is a great opportunity to meet many members of the club, take photos and have a great day out! If you're intending to come, please get a free ticket down below to help up keep track of numbers. If you're taking some snaps, send them to us so we can feature them on our website and socials!
The route has been chosen to be a fun mix of easier, scenic roads for the first half, and more technical, twisty mountain roads for the second half and after-cruise run. There are a few things that should be noted for your safety and enjoyment:
1. E85 USERS: FILL UP AFTER HAPPY LAPS! This is an approximately 185km route (including the after-cruise run) and we dont you to miss out on it. The closest United servo to QR is at Yamanto, so please head over and fill up after Happy Laps! It's better to play it safe than end up stuck out there!
2. Although the Beechmont Hotel will try it's best to accommodate us, parking may not be guaranteed if we end up later than 11:30am. For this reason, we will be departing from QR at 9:00am sharp!
3. To try keep the cruise from spliting or having people get lost on the route, we're going to split people into smaller groups, each with a lead car. Just follow your lead car if your maps loses reception.
4. Some of the roads may narrow down to one lane at a time, so please drive accordingly.
5. Speed cameras and police are known to patrol these roads, please keep that in mind.
6. Current weather predictions are looking good, however there still might be rain during the cruise. Please drive to the conditions and be safe!
This is a CRUISE not a Rally, there are no prizes for getting to the venue first. All attendees should adhere to all road rules and obey all signs, speed limits and drive to the conditions. Please be respectful when leaving our starting and end points, your behaviour reflects on us as a Club.
Some of the roads on our cruise are winding and fun to drive, but use common sense and stay safe. Don't drive harder than you or the conditions can handle. Once again, it's a cruise, not a track day! Take it easy and keep a safe following distance. Maintaining a good following distance also allows for more flowing traffic through the winding sections of road. When turning at an intersection, wait until the person behind you can see you and where you're going. This helps prevent people from getting lost!
It's looking like a great day out, so we'll see you there!!!
