Bathurst (Mt. Panorama) Via Jenolan Caves Supa Cruise- Sun, Nov 20Th!


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, i am organising a cruise that has some terrific scenery and fantastic roads, i have done this drive a couple of times & absolutely loved it out to the famous Mt. Panorama... hope to see you there, the details are as follows:

DATE: Sunday, Nov 20th

TIME: From 9:30AM

MEET WHERE: Penrith KK's Carpark (between Outback Steak House & KK's, behind Macca's near Penrith Panthers) on Molgoa Rd.

LEAVING: 10:30AM SHARP

DESTINATION:

1. Oberon

2. Mt. Panorama

Our first stop will be Caltex @ Mt. Victoria, for anyone who needs fuel. The next stop, via Jenolan Caves, is at Oberon for a 35minute fuel & lunch break... we'll then head to our final destination which is the BIG park up the top of Mt. Panorama, we can organise from there to do afew laps of mt Panorama, we can organise from there to do afew laps of mt Panorama- within reason- but please be mindful to do the speed limit as the Police presence on the track is quite strong and they are not very lenient... they hide all the time around the track!

Cruise Route:

1. Right onto Molgoa Rd.

2. Right onto the M4/Great Western Highway onto and following through the Blue Mountains

3. Once you go down the other side of the Blue Mountains @ Mt. Victoria, the first speed cameras you see... take the 1st LEFT afterward and you follow that road (Sign for Oberon), it will lead you to Jenolan Caves.

4. The rest is hard to explain, you'll need to keep up...

I know how you feel, still havn't got mine back yet, been nearly a month.

I should have a spare seat in the back if i get it all back and together this week....

You'll just have to meet me at the meet point.

1st stop is Caltex @ Mt. Vicotria to fuel up for anyone who needs to. We will only be driving through Jenolan Caves, and will be stopping to refuel and for lunch in Oberon. This is due to the price of Food @ Jenolan Caves, lack of parking and to eliminate anyone holding up the cruise with doing their own thing- if that makes sense.

I wasn't able to come along, but was at Panthers getting coffee from the Maccas about the meeting time, didn't see any cars :( anyone have some pics from the cruise they would like to post up?

Got afew photo's from yesterday, here's the link to the album: Mt. Panorama Cruise- Photo Album!!

Thanx to those of you who came out for the meet or the cruise itself, much appreciated :thumbsup:

    • Hey guys I’m chasing a Rb20det complete or bare block need a good running engine as mine has low comp 
    • You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.
    • 98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.
    • Anyone know alternatives to powerplus tungsten? Can't find an alternative online. 
    • 95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
