I'm pretty sure you have to buy it in a barral. No PULP 98 on the bowser in Tassie

[SKiT_R31]

oh k, i just thort i heard it getting around

[JaFF]

Not yet unfortunately. There were talk of it happening but when is anyones guess.

I've got a spare drum of BP 98RON in Launceston that we didn't take to Rallye Burnie if anyone wants one.

What sort of price?

Was talkin' to a couple of Norvac fella's the other day and they were tellin' me that some servo's (Caltex) round Tassie have been earmarked for PULP 98, just happens to be one of the earmarked one's right across the road from me! May be here sooner than we think!

[JaFF]

I spose any 98ron is good but I'd prefer BP ultimate.

earmarked, that could take years. And with the cost of 95PULP imagine how much they'll charge for 98 when it gets here. Tassie sucks, petrol way more expensive, houses way more expensive even for shitholes..... ... ..end rant sorry.

It's depressing trying to buy a house down here.

YEP i know where your coming from Jaff

TASSIE SUCKS :chairshot

The main pro with 98 was the fact there was no storage at selfs point,

but no lrp is no longer they have spare tanks out there.

word has it they are fitting the new safetey systems in the next few months, getting ready for the 98.

I wouldn't complain to much about the cost of petrol here!! You should try some of the coastal towns along the Vic/NSW coast! When I was up there in Feb PULP was nearly $1.20 ltr then, was payin' nearly $1.30 for PULP 98!

As for realestate, well let's no start on that!

You don't know what your've got till you loose it!!

[JaFF]

erm, i paid $1.24 just 2 days ago. that was for 95ron obviously

Look at the post, it was back in Feb when we were still under $1.10 ltr!

[Frink]

you guys dont have 98ron fuel?!?!?!?!?!

you poor souls. that must really suck. do you guys use octane booster on a regular basis?

[JaFF]

i use it from time to time but when I got my SAFCII tuned it was done so conservatively to run on 95RON

[machg]

Geee Tasmanian motorists getting treated like second class citizens, I would never have thought that would ever happen!

[machg]

Tassie; believe it when you see it, its possible we will never get PULP 98. (Unless your a rich STi driver or Targa Tas. competitor)

[Duncan]

yeah and even then its 2.40 per litre

[sav man]

Wouldn't it be cheaper to go to a servo on the mainland, and fill a 40 galon drum with 98ron, and bring it down with you for Targa? Or do you use that 100+ron stuff? There were afew cars running on left over F1 fuel accouple of years ago.

[Duncan]

yeah we looked at it but it is a logistical disaster, 500l of fuel carted all over tassie not to mention the rules required to ship fuel on the boat. All too hard so we just do the same as most people and buy it down there.

The serious guys are using the elf turbomax at ~$8 per litre.....for 500l....ouch...
