  1. Anyone else heard about NSW and how by 2011 or 2012 they plan to only sell 98octane and e10? Sad day for motorists...
  2. I only run BP Ultimate... except this one time when I had to use Vortex and felt dirty for it. Performance. Cleaner fuel. Better =P I got more mileage out of it even when prices were higher too!
  3. First comment was enough =D Was looking for Byron using the search tool in the events forum and no results thus the post
  4. A Sharps test is fully covered by your insurance. Make sure you remind them to cover it.
  5. Is that nissan type run to byron still happening on the 14th dec? The post seems to have ninja'd away!
  6. Did it come with the car when imported from japan as their FM signals are numbered from 20 lower... like 104.9 is 89 ish on my crazy deck... just waiting on my Kenwood DVD-mp3 player to arrive from WoW =D
  7. They got me on my wording of my response. I said, "I couldn't possibly have been doing more than 65 if you count in error of speedo." BAM ticket for <10 over limit. Better than losing my license though, I happily paid the $75 it was back in the day.
  8. See I'm a bigger fan of Parklife/Future Music... love the electro!
  9. Anyone else hitting BDO this year? I'd pay $100 just to see Pendulum so its a double win for me heheh.
  10. If you are looking for clubs and are into the Electro/House/Dance style music check out the platinum bar for sure. Might even catch a shuffler or two if you're lucky
  11. Me and the missus will be there =D
  12. Also look into insurance... its something like 30%(24.something) of accidents are simple rear ender - no brains - not paying attention accidents. Safest option of course in future is be mindfull of running yellows =P
  13. I work in insurance claims and I think I can help you fight this from a perspective of, avoiding avoidable damage to your vehicle. You see the stop if it is safe to do so can be broken into a couple of pieces as there are a few factors to take into consideration: 1. Experience of the driver (this includes with the vehicle you are driving and how long you have been driving) I mean if you have only had your car for a few months then driving in the rain, cornering etc aren't exactly your best points yet 2. Distance from car to line when the light went yellow. If the distance was <3 seconds to the line then legally, just like with following Third Party vehicle, you don't have enough space to safely stop. 3. Reaction speed of the driver and when they noticed the yellow light. Most people cruise towards lights and don't expect certain intersections to go yellow as they approach due to experience with that intersection and this also depends on what they are doing in the car. Generally the 3 second rule applies here to. 4. If you had a Third Party behind you. Police oft forget if you have a hot car with an expensive paint job, insurance won't always cover the full cost of repairs and in many insurance company cases, the vehicle is worth less to write off than to have resprayed and repaired. This means if there is someone right up your arse and you are having to brake suddenly they would not have the chance to stop and will likely cause damage to your vehicle, putting you in a nasty situation. Also if it was the police right behind you then you can put that under entrapment as if they were right behind you they are effectively trying to bully you forward. Think about these points and what others have said, the only fines I have ever recieved are parking fines and my last speeding ticket was for 70 in a 60 zone when both myself and the officers knew I was doing over 100 but as they had no gun and no clear sight of me they could not enforce what speed they knew I was doing!
