ITINERARY
WHAT IS CRUIZ-A-PALOOZA? This year we are bringing Cruiz-A-Palooza to the masses. Our small group of enterprising individuals have enjoyed the experiences of friendship and fast cars together for many years, we have travelled Australia’s greatest driving roads, taken our cars to the limits on the racetrack and experienced life as it should be more often. Although these planned gatherings of like minded individuals have been fascinating to say the least, in 2012 we will bring our branding to the market and explore the possibilities of a lifestyle event that has never been attempted in this country before. Business and life in general can be stressful so for one week in November we aim to change your perceptions and indulge your senses in an action packed week staying in some of Australia’s best hotels while driving Australia’s best roads.
