Hi veczar,

The loop Lilydale to Lake Mountain and back is about 185km. But's the roads are windy, so it'll take more fuel and more time than if you were doing the equivalent distance down the Hume Highway. At 18litres per 100km, that means you'll need 33 litres or roughly half a Falcon tank starting from Lilydale and making your way back to Lilydale. There are petrol stations at Lilydale, Healesville, Marysville and Warburton (though not sure if Marysville's will be open on a Sunday).

From our Bunnings start point to Lilydale, it's only about another 25km or so.

Hiya Guys,

I will be bringing along some official "FordXR6Turbo.com" site stickers (but they've all been accounted for now). I'm treating this as a test case to see if it is worthwhile service or not.

They are exactly the same ones available from MissXR who is in-charge of merchandising, just that the choice is limited this time around as only the sticker is available for now. I'm doing this as a not-for-profit service as when I've been on cruises, I'd often wished I could've bought site merchandise on the cruise.

Here is the official link to MissXR's post for the stickers if you want to buy them from her by mail (if I've run out of them).

And here's a link showing what the stickers look like on other forum member's cars.

http://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/index.ph...findpost&p=6609

The official site stickers are the white "FordXR6Turbo.com" rear window ones (24cm long x 3cm high) and I will have them for sale for $10 each (which is the same price that MissXR sells them but with the added benefit that purchasers won't have to pay for postage and handling).

I have one on my T so if you wanted to see how it looks for real when applied, come and see me on the cruise.

Instructions to apply stickers (according to MissXR and EvilDaifu):

1. Clean the surface that you want to place the sticker on. I washed and then used metho on the glass to make sure it was free of any grease and muck. Make sure its dry after you have cleaned it.

2. Pull the backing off the sticker (leave the front masking tape on).

3. Place the sticker on the glass and rub the sticker down onto the glass. The middle of the sticker is about between the 6 and T in FordXR6Turbo.com. I used a fluffy mitten to put even pressure over the top of the sticker to ensure the letters stuck to the glass. NB. Use the bottom of the lettering as your guide for making sure the sticker is level. The actual tape that the sticker is on is not level with the lettering (though it almost is).

4. Slowly take off the front masking tape. I think it's best to peel from the top right corner as the letters slant forwards so there is less chance of lifting up any letters accidently.

5. From an aesthetics point of view, black background against the white lettering of the sticker looks great and possible places for that on your front or rear windows is at the very top. Like so.

Currently in stock with me: SORRY - I don't have any left :censored: site stickers. They've been hot sellers (probably latent demand).
