    The BP is 100 metres past Calder park, it's got a Macca's and a big carpark if that helps.

    Yeah... the BP has heaps of truck parking and normal car spaces. It'd hold more cars than that gravel carpark at Calder.... so there's no problem there. I think it has a KFC as well as Maccas too.

    Check out this satellite pic for a sense of scale...

    Thanks for the map, Slim! It was a good suggestion going to her servo, I just don't like changing things so close to the meeting point incase someone doesn't check the internet within the last couple of days prior to the meet.

    Good to see you back in, Ian! Hope you are feeling better..

    Eddie is struggling to make the cut with his 20 Valve conversion, I don't think it'll be ready in time but he'll be there all the same he said.

    Marcus was also doing a lot of engine work and was a fair way off last time I heard too.

    Ed's car went off to the wiring/tuning guy today... it's not going to be ready. He'll be coming though.

    Marcus is not coming. Not sure why.

    That's a shame he's not coming - I haven't seen him for a while.

    Hahaha... Cheers...

    He only lives about 700m away from me, so it's all too easy really... Plus I can't see myself ever needing it again as the 3S-GTE has an internally regulated alternator...

    ...i am currently sitting here watching the rain fall on my clean car .........damn weather...here is what the forecasters have to say about tomorrow.

    Fine apart from the chance of an early shower in southern suburbs. A partly
    cloudy day with light to moderate southerly winds.

    Precis: Chance early shower.

    ...may change a bit when we are out in the country but should be ok.......*fingers crossed*
