Sorry, I did it when we were waiting for all to finish refulling at gosford... and totally forgot about it when we got to amanda's... I can email it to you if you like? [email protected]

Ronin, Cheers mate for a pretty well organised cruise in the end... so yeah we did a bit of extra site seeing... but hey, I've organised a few cruises and they don't always go exactly to plan. But we made it to everywhere on time and had some laughs along they way! Good job mate... even if you did leave Duncan, the bloke in the pulsar (sorry forgot your name) and I behind at the begining! I had a great time coming back down the putty road to get home... I'll have to get to organising a cruise up there in the nearish future. Good to meet those that I hadn't met before and also to see some faces that I had seen before. (I was the bloke in the gunmetal sky with the SAU forms for anyone trying to work out who I am) Look forward to the next one.

yeah... but they could explain that to you... and tell you that their not good, super dodgy machines reading is .85... then at least you know what you are being detained for. Thanks for the support guys.

so Dino... If your not coming then I guess it is up to me to take the membership forms? Better hit the print button.

nuts... yes all are welcome... you'll need to get deposits to me asap though. PM me for details

the said that they would have to take me into a station or to an RBT Mobile Vehical. After I asked a few times what I blew he said that I was over. but never gave me the reading untill I was back at the police station.

I wasn't sure if it was like the speeding thing... where they have to show you the reading... espically if they are going to detain you?

I might make it... let me see a little cloer to the date.

I think ric was cheaper than that... but I'm not really sure... Bonkers can you confirm?

I blew 0.085 (mid range) on the side of the road but was not told of this untill just before I blew at the station. I blew 0.075 (low range) at the station. Being over the limit is not the issue... I thought I was ok and I was not... I'll just have to face up to what ever the Judge hands down. What worries me is that the charging officer said that I was visually intoxicated and gave the reason of PCA... I really don't think that they could have seen PCA. I'm worried that the judge will think that I looked pissed when they pulled me over when I have 2 witnesses that could testify that I didn't "look" intoxicated. I'm going to seek legal advice to make sure I get a fair hearing... will have to wait and see.

ric does know power FC's

We know!!!

gonad man... are you coming to track day?

Hey Guys, Just had to get this off my chest. On Friday I attended a funeral and Wake, where I consumed a few beverages in honour of the great man that we lost. Mum was the designated driver so I didn't have to worry about driving untill later that evening. With this in mind I stoped drinking about an hour before we left the wake and began drinking scooners of water as I was feeling a bit tipsy. We then completed the 30 min trip home (and another bottle of water) and it would have been about 2 hrs after my last drink that I and my girlfriend started the 5 min trip to her place where we were to spend the evening. At this time I felt sober, just a little tired. I arrived at the top of my road and as I waited to turn onto the GWH I noticed a marked police car drive past. I didn't think much of it untill I saw them pull off to the left and out of sight in a parking area near the station. I proceeded onto the GWH and headed past where the cop had stoped... as I almost expected he pulled out after me and followed me (close enough that I could see his head lights and a small portion of his bonnet UNDER my series 2 height rear wing). I followed the car in front of me at 5 kms below the speed limit and at a safe distance. Within 500m of the cops pulling in behind me the lights were on and I was pulling over. The police officer hoped out of his vehical with the RBT machine and I think "this will be interesting". He ask's me if I have had anything to drink and I reply yes. I blow and he tells me that they will have to take me in. I asked what the reading was and he just asked "is the lady is ok to drive?" I said that she had been drinking also and again asked if I could see the reading. The officer said that he would be able to breath test her and if she was over the limit then they would wait while someone came to pick her (and my car) up. Anyway... after we made the 15min trip up to Katoomba police station (I had to show them the way as the were from Liverpool) and I had been through all the paper work and questions I was then finally told my RBT reading (just before I blew into the other machine) This time it read lower and I was given a court appearence notice and my licence and told that I was free to go, Along with all the other paper work. I arrived back home and read through the paper work and noticed that under the heading Visual Inspection I was assessed to be showing signs of intoxication and the comment was PCA. As far as I'm aware PCA is the Prescribed Concentration of Alcohol... this would be impossible to see visually with out the use of some other form of testing equipment? I was tired from the rather emotional day. I am concerned that this visual assessment of my level of intoxication may work against me in court. I felt fine and could walk talk and do everything normally. However, having said all of this I still am not trying to say that I should not have been pulled over for a RBT... and having blown over the limit I will just have to face the consquences. However, I do feel that as I gave all the correct and truthfull answers to the best of my knowledge I really do hope that the officers have done the right thing by me. All I want is a fair shot. Thanks for listening guys, Dan.

Sounds like there are a few of us after a tune... I might get in contact with Ric and see if he would do a group discount for us. Won't be for over a week though as I'll be on holidays untill next Monday.

pete... make sure you remember the right BBQ gas conector this time!
