Thats it - I'm home! Will sit down and give my thanks, and show some pics tomorrow.
And the good thing about Brisbane is that it is only a days drive from Sydney!
Hope the punks are having a good trip back...
Oh and 3.58 diff FTW on highway!
11.5km/l...sweet!
Cheers

I never saw a wild thing sorry for itself. A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough without ever having felt sorry for itself. - D.H.Lawrence
sounds like it was all fun, like all roadtrips are. very jealous that i couldnt come on this one.
getting itchy feet.
Good times. I'm tired, and i'm sleepy. That said, i'm home (well, i'm at work anyway). Car is ferally dirty, but now it has a reason for it
We ended up arriving in Balladonia to find they were packed, so we booted it to Norseman on the way home. We managed to get picked up by the police a few times, resulting in only one fine (coff's $179 and 1 point for 126kph in SA). Peewee got pulled over not long after Eucla, and I managed to get off with a warning yesterday for being clocked over the limit just before Southern Cross...kinda annoyed, because I think I might've gotten flashed by a multinova as I rolled into Perth, I missed a change in speed sign. Ah well
Car returned much better fuel economy since being tuned, and even better once I realised the closed loop fuel contol was on and trying to richen up the AFR's. Ah well, wish i'd discovered it before yesterday though, I wouldn't have run out of fuel 20km from Cocklebiddy
Now I turned off the closed loop ignition on my ECU (which isnt setup right) I now get to enjoy the tune Dave at SAS actually did, explains where my 5-6MPH from the drags went to. Ah well, too late now.
I plan to do it again for sure at some stage, just not yet![]()

WSID was wicked and so was Lowenbrau LOL @ my mate brian (beer burp)

The trip back was fast paced and quite a run down, the 1G is feeling it, my back is feeling it, my skin (burn) is feeling it, i think last nights sleep was the best sleep ive had in 3 weeks
Also FUCK YOU nullaboar+NSW roads for killing my rear tyres and THANKYOU to JCMO/Cruz for putting up with me stopping all the time due to paranoia with the oil/water/wah/wah/wah list goes on...
