Thanks mate, I normally stop at Gundagai for the night whenever I head up for this or WSID meets, done it a few times now, the return trip isn't too bad in one stint at night because the roads are quiet.

No dramas mate. Keep an eye out for animals though, i do that trip very often and theres heaps of them in certain areas - ive found though, that if you can leave Sydney around 7pm and stick to the speed limit (only stopping for petrol) you'll miss the bad spots as they only come out at certain times at night. A few weeks ago i hit a wallaby/kangaroo out the front of the servo as you come into Melbourne where the roadworks are but i was delayed came came through there about 30mins before dawn, its all in the timing :bunny:

Yeah thats true. Thanks for the advice. Last time took about just over 8 hours to get home from the track (only stopping for fuel).

I had to choose between Compak Attak at WSID this weekend or Superlap, but I've decided to stick with going up to check Superlap out. Will be cheering on the Vic guys!

Are those tickets just for people going to watch?

I've got 30 more kw's now. Making 230 but only up to about 6500-7000 then it drops off. Looking forward to the extra torque that we made though. Car is almost prepped with only a few things left.

Can't wait!

Changed my mind and decided to fly up for the day rather than drive.

Also will be taking pics for www.fullboost.com.au from the event :D

Ben thats all right, does that mean you get better acess all area's.

Flying up is more likely cheaper this days then driveing, Might see you at the airport.

      MLR's Bogan cruise ship

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I can totally get why you like it for that sort of commute. I was thinking BoganDore because it's such a lazy drive, for things like stop start traffic.   I used to do over an hour in stop start shit from one side of Bris to the next, twice a day. My choice of car was larger displacement, with an auto. Basically for torque in low rpm/very low speed, and no clutch pedal. But loved a fun manual for the weekends, which the partner has (plus had the LandCruiser too for other fun drives). I now have an EV as a work car, and I tell ya what, ultimate daily driver, especially if youre out of energy, like I often am after work. I don't even need to touch the brake pedal   That said, I'm presently rebuilding the Liberty GTB to get it setup for weekend drives and track abuse! So small high revving turbo engine with 6 speed cog swapper!   But for your style of commute, I'd probably take the MX5 too!   For those choices, I'm ignoring fuel economy. Because I know how atrocious V8 daily life is for fuel from when I used to daily a manual SS, ha ha. Hence why I know I love the daily rumble of a V8

      People just don't understand how good MX5's actually are and how fun they are to drive, park, manuever. You feel like you have got some fun cheat code, while everyone else is sitting in their luxobargeSUV like normies who missed the point of living. It really is that noticable. As long as you/your stuff fit, and you're comfortable (they are), a MX5 is the best car on earth to daily around.

      1. The MX5 is small, light and fun to throw around at low speeds 2. Fuel economy is great 3. There's more than enough room for my day bag, and enough room in the boot for some shopping  4. I like looking at it My daily commute takes about 10 minutes of suburban streets, mostly 50kph, with about 6 roundabouts and minimal traffic Whilst the SS is a big comfy cruiser, that's all it is, and the fuel economy is about 3 times as much as the MX5's around town
