Let me get this right, a business wants to to go away and not spend your money there cause your scaring away potential customers...

Im shocked and dumb founded, I personally read this as "We dont want your business"...

Other tenants would complain i agree, this would cause friction between them...

Obviously the profit you bring is not worth the hassle to them...

This is the epic depot I was talking about last night: http://www.nearmap.com/?ll=-27.333333,153....mp;nmd=20100912

Thats the wholesale 2nd hand machinery yard that council is trying to shut down...

Yeah that's how I read it too.

I'm not sure if I detect sarcasm in your first sentance or not though...

Over winter, the place is a ghost town. Some nights we would be the ONLY customers. Obviously in summer it is busier but I really doubt we are scaring away any customers. And if we are, it wouldnt be more business than the amount we bring.

He sure has changed his tune, from encouraging us to go there and giving us discount to a veritable "F*ck off". I wonder what the true story behind it is...

I guess so, although it has been up till now...

In any case, if we aren't welcome, we will leave. Hopefully his reply is a little more positive.

So, I can go there and buy stuff?

Why is the council trying to shut it down?

Maybe if the council is shutting down they will be keen to just get rid of sh*t...

what sort of machinery are we talking here? Annas dad is in the market for one of those bigass skid steer ride on mowers that the councils use.

Theres a heap of stuff in there. Trucks, cranes, plant equipment, etc. Not sure about mowers, might be.

I'm keen for a car trailer. They have about half a dozen parked out the front, including one newish looking fully enclosed job (its probably out of the budget but some of the others might not be, especially if they are closing down).

no sarcasm intended

Yes you can!!!

Because its been re-zoned as residential about 12 years ago...

The owner of the land could not sell it due to flood risk (funny now)...

So he is leasing it out to a company who buy and sell second hand machinery...

As is a residential area they have little right to use it as a commercial property bordering on industrial which is illegal...

So council is trying to say selling machinery is industrial but technically they get away with it cause its commercial... politics...

You can save up to 80% this weekend and get a free rug

From the street it looks like anything from bobcats up to big earth moving equipment, worth a look see...

Nays dad bought a bobcat and a kanga/dingo from him a few months back... He was about half the price that everyone else wanted...

I think they buy all their gear at auctions, people desperate to sell then pass the savings on...

He seems to turn over a shit load of machinery, might be a chop shop? :D

As forseen, not a particularily productive day.

It's not even noon, and I am already at home, pretending to be in meetings.

Martin, who were you going to use for your cage? Deliberating between a cheap half bolt in job, or just biting the bullet and doing it right. My mate that was going to do it is too busy with work

Cool, So I guess I just rock up, go down the driveway and ask how much they want for the car trailers?

There's no signs up or anything which is why I wasn't sure what it actually was...

keen to get a small mobile crane. wonder how much that would be...

That's what she said.

Not 100% sure yet, but the first person I plan to talk to is Norm Singleton: http://www.fiatabarthclassicracing.com.au

This is because he apparantly does good work, and specialises in Italian sh*tboxes cars.

    • I thought an engine that needs more ignition timing to make power is going to result in less power due to reduced knock margin? More time for the combustion to propagate -> more time for it to heat up the rest of the mix to detonation.
    • DCS, war thunder, IL2 - mostly flight sim games.
    • FWIW, the Sutton Road facility is a good one, they have a wet kidney skidpan and a dry area as well as the back track....the club hired it a few times back in the day The clover and wet pans at Eastern Creek are the only ones I still know of in Sydney, that place is always expensive but different clubs would run different prices/formats There used to be a place called HART at St Ives, not sure if that still exists. We used to hire the runway at the tafe at schofields for dry motorkhana, not sure if anyone still does that. And of course that lovely one at Oran Park that is now a housing estate....
    • Sounds like you are trying to escape one abusive relationship by getting into an even worse one. It is possible to change your life if you want to
    • So, I did a skid pan last Friday at SMSP which I totally sucked at. I'd like to get better at this but it was $350 and I probably got about 20 mins on the pan over the 4 hours I was there which is just not a great ROI.  I don't have a LSD in the car yet, that will happen before I go again. I was struggling to get the car to be consistent and I think it was the open diff. I also struggled to maintain any control at all once it did step out. More practice needed.  I found this one but it's a good 7hrs round trip for me. https://www.fifthgear.com.au/course/advanced-skidpan-training Are there any others that people have been to around Sydney?
