S A U - N S W Tech Night 21St Feb - Detailing

[GTR-N1]

What's the largest Gold Class that they make Matt?

Mine is 1.89l - Lol > gulp* > need some too

[God_speed]

Yeah mine is about 2L as well I think.

According to their website they don't make em any bigger unfortunately

Megs might have some of their Detailer range available on the night;

<http://www.meguiars.com.au/products/detailer/> 19 litres anyone?

Might be designed for gurneys though I'm not sure.

[Pezhead]

On the count down now folks. To the last few folks that haven't reconfirmed, we are days away so will be notifying the reserves that your spot may be available so they should keep their diary free.

If you don't confirm by tomorrow folks sorry but we need to make sure everyone that wanted to go gets the best opportunity.

That is all for now... Prez out!

^^^ Up to date with 2 sleeps to go...

Maikul (Michael) & darksky34 (Chris) & cpd (Owen), can you guys contact Andy at MotroActive please?

Maybe, you'll need to arrive earlier than most - perhaps, there's a certain type of preparedness?

[darksky34]

Contacting him as I type this. Also, anybody got any idea what's the quickest way from CBD to silverwater? Will try to leave work a little earlier but not sure if possible, and if not, then I don't want to get stuck in traffic as I may need to arrive earlier.

[Duncan]

Also, anybody got any idea what's the quickest way from CBD to silverwater?

Definately helicopter mate, if that's not available try an official motorcade, they make really good time.

[ls128]

Avoid the M4/Parramatta road at all costs.

Alternatively, Parramatta road would get you there!

[God_speed]

It would have to be Parra rd I reckon even if there's traffic on it because going north will still have traffic and won't be any faster.

I'd just go the back way through the inner west, i.e. take City West Link, then Dobroyd Pde, Wattle st, turn right onto Ramsay Rd before hitting Parramatta Rd (will take a while to turn right but after you do it should be worth it), then Queens Rd, then Gipps St right to the end, then left > left > left onto the M4.

[darksky34]

Thanks for all the serious and entertaining answers guys. Was tossing up going through the CBD to chatswood then cutting down to Ryde which is right next to silverwater.

[oweban]

Easy done - spoke to Matt Bowen.

Will get there at 6 or so (possibly earlier if traffic is good pppffffffftttttttt)

edit:: should i bother washing the car first? might not be a bad idea?

[Duncan]

That will be the quickest for sure, bridge/gore hill/m2/lane cove tunnel/ryde rd/victoria rd/silverwater rd. But it may be expensive for tolls.

[levinboy]

Coming from the airport might get there after 630 unless the boss lets me out a little earlier

[r32-25t]

no excuses

[GTR-N1]

"No excuses!"

How did you know what HWP would say when Nick explains why he's late?

[r32-25t]

he is in a skyline, hwp wont even look twice at him lol

[1motoractive]

Hi

A couple of guys have asked quickest way from the City. I do the run every day and it won't be fast, but best is same as God_Speed has suggested, but don't go on M4. From Gipps St go Concord Rd, Wellbank St, Pomeroy St, Underwood Rd, Australia Ave, Bennelong Parkway, Hill Rd, Holker St.

It's more complicated but definitely quicker at that time of day.

If you want a map of where we are on Holker Street just email me at [email protected] We are the driveway off Holker Street about 100m to the west of the main entrance to Silverwater Jail, but on the opposite side of the road. Directly opposite the large white oil tanks.

Cheers

Andy

[SiNNO]
