For all the refugee & good food hating bigots in the house.

Here's a story on some good friends of mine who also happen to make the best phó in town

yay house internet has been dropping in and out all week and today has been choppy at 2mbs. login into the router and says its 5.7mbs...

Its been ok for a few weeks before this, and then will be bad for a day or 5 then be back to normal. been talking to internode on and off throughout the year about it and ive replaced the line filter with a normal cable, and the only other option is to replace the router. I borrowed my dads old ADSL2 modem/router and found out its not compatible with iinet's network

the fritzbox is a $300 router than ive never had any issues with, other than having to reset it whenever speeds slow down. im not going to replace it just so internode can lodge a complaint to telstra/optus whoever. changing to cable from optus or telstra would double the internet bill and i'd lose my $20 a month mobile SIM.

Driving Soarer while Skyline off road

The fuel economy is depressingly good -_-

E85 is a wallet drainer

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

Last time I used e85 it was 99.9 and ulp was like 1.70

[Birds]

The least I paid was a bit over a dollar

Now it is exactly on par with unleaded...and if unleaded goes up it does too

Except when unleaded drops it doesn't drop

So much screwage

Gheeeeeeeey

Drive to phillip island was fked - planned it so my last fillup would be in Cranbourne - pump not in use. Travelled west to Frankston to get it - waste of ~10 litres

#jerrycans

[Birds]

I DID have jerry cans lol

By the time I got to PI and drove around on the Saturday I had 3/4 in the first session. After issT two sessions tipped one can in, then at end of the day I put the second one in and made it home with 1/3 a tank left or something.

E85 is bad enough on economy let alone tracking it

[emts]

saw some-one do syd -> winton track it and drive home

think there were 22 jerry cans...

edit:

jerry cans were in a chase ute.

why the fk they did not just hire a trailer is beyond me.

[Birds]

That's thoroughly retardsd...I would have taken 6 at the most and 98'd it until I got to the track then switch.

The United in San Remo really needs it; it would get more use than most E85 bowsers in the country. Cranbourne being bone dry is evidence of this.

[Birds]

Wouldn't mind a drop tank in the Skyline, even for 98 that would be handy. Evo guys must live at the servo.

[emts]

yeah thinking must have been a 2 day track session for 22 jerry's

but still difficult.

I want to convert to E85 next year however also moving to the country so nearest servo 100 km away, going to make life difficult

time to conver to new tow rig with extra tanks

[Leroy Peterson]

Dat pulsar race track economy (though 98).

Also, if you go fuel cell, can increase tank capacity

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

Dat pulsar race track economy.

True, but any on track savings are offset by the male prostitute you pay on the way home

$10k for wheels and tyres?

over $1k to fit a rear diff?

$30k for widebody and re-spray.

wants 40% back on what he paid for mods + value of the car?

i feel sorry for this dude.

not to mention you can get an M3 of the same era and kms for the same or even less money. I wonder which will depreciate more?

Funny shit on the road today.

Some dickbag motorbike rider clearly had some form of beef with a dude in a car.

We were driving down the road and he was sitting on his chopper show bike right up this cars ass, then his mate that was waiting for him pulls out of a parking space on a dirt bike and sits in front of the car while old mate Phaggot Mc Showbike moves beside the car.

They look at each other and dirt bike brake checks the car while showbike turns into him, forcing the guy all the way onto the wrong side of the road and nearly into incoming traffic....

A 3rd bike was there, unaware of what was going on, but as so many idiot motorbike riders do, was sitting in the cars blind spot with that whole moron "if he hits me it's his fault" attitude.

Dude narrowly missed being run over by the car, and then the oncoming traffic.

Crazy stupidity all round.

I would have called the cops but the 2 offenders didn't have lisence plates
