According to the other forum, its going on in the afternoon, 1 - 4, but I guess that all depends on who shows up! They are doing them in order, 6 cyl first, then 6 forced, 8 n/a next etc etc. Could be 2pm, could be 12pm!

Yeh, I saw that. Bit of a bugger as I have to take the kids to a basketball final in the afternoon so I can only stay until 1pm at the latest. Can you put it down for the 10am to 1pm slot? There's bugger all cars in that one and the air temps should be cooler (although it is Canberra so that shouldn't be a problem).

I dont think its my call, im kinda leaving it up to Marcus and Kit to when they want to run the big fella up.

see what happens!

It's up to you (from the Gentech site):

"Below is a list, broken up into times when you would prefer to run. You are not committed to it (ie in case you have drama's getting here on the day) but it will give us an idea and help spread the cars across the whole day."

But I can understand them wanting to run it later in the day. Self interest at heart, I didn't want to miss it. Cheers anyway, I'm sure you'll have a great run. Just make sure there's a vid. :burnout:

Never, ever, EVER fill up at BP in Queanbeyan! They are a bunch of rip off merchants!

Since the main price boards only show unleaded, diesel and maybe gas I use the unleaded as the guide and assume 98RON premium to be 10-11 cpl more.

So unleaded is 128.9, which wasn't to bad I thought, so I start filling up and then I look at the price and Ultimate is 146.9! FARK ME! 18 cpl more! I stopped right there... Still $30 worth in no time though!

I regrettably pay, leave and load the other BP I had saved in my satnav which is in Kingston.

When I arrive there, unleaded is 121.9 and Ultimate is 131.9, which is more like it!

I can't get over the massive 15 cpl difference between the two stations! I've never seen anything like it! And the distance between the two is not alot!

Other than that Canberra seems ok. There's a lot of strange people around the Canberra Centre and I don't think I've seen so many people covered in full body tattoo's in one place before but I don't mind it all in all.

The speed camera's make me laugh! They tell you they're there. Even the mobile units. VERY different to Victoria. If you get caught speeding up here then you must drive with your eyes closed.

See you all tomorrow at the dyno day!

The mobile radar jobbies tend to sit in the same spots too, which makes it even easier!
