Do we need to bring extra fuel along like we do for Wakefield?

Start with a full tank and you'll be fine. There's a servo just up the road at Marulan if you run out.

Apu you won't need more fuel, I think I will though haha

Apu, a full tank will make you slow(er) ...

Just downloaded a decibel meter and it appears I'm pushing my luck... Best test sat at 92, but the stab test got like 97. Avg over 4 tests was 95. Still coming, but not confident I'll be allowed to play.

On another note, swung over to the riff today and picked up a new helmet for 100 and a new fia suit for 200! Win!

nice scotty, bring some tools perhaps we can muffle the exhaust tomorrow somehow!

Talked to the guys at marulan, they have something to silence exhausts there.

10mm chicken mesh or similar (think radiator grill mesh from supercheap) over the tip holding in a few stainless steel dish scrubbers and held in place with hose clamps works pretty good.

Wooden chock under the loud pedal? :lol:

That's what I was thinking Dann, its to late for a lap of bunnings, I will see what their solution is. If it's rubbish I'll shoot into town and be good to go by 10 or so.

What a great day! Had a blast!

Noise was never an issue, but the POS tyres and th diff that single legged more than a dog with a sketchy bladder certainly kept me busy!

Wasn't the fastest, but I learnt alot about driving MX5s today. I had one or two moments, but other than slightly squarer tyres, cars still fine.

Bring on Wakefield!
