Question. Where do we get fuel while at the track? is there any ultimate near by? [quote]

No fuel at the track, only Goulburn. I don't know where the BP is, only the Mobil and Shell. Take it down in a drum, it would be simpler.

Mobil 8000 is OK, if no BP Ultimate. Ditto the Shell Optimax, but my car won't rev as well on it.

Unless you are comming from Gosford save ya money and drive home at the end of the day. You will be pretty rooted so we leave early and stop a couple of times for a break. In the end you will still be home before dark and save cash. If you stay you may be bored shiteless by 5pm and you could have been home.

The trailer is a must, sooner or later someone will have a problem and Goulburn is not the place to be stuck. Dean if you are not taking you mini how about you grab Brad's trailer and head over hear. I'm pretty sure I remember how to put a mini onto it and we can split the petrol bill for the day (as long as no one else needs the trailer at the end of the day).

Petrol is available in toen 10 minutes away. I estimate you use about 1 Litre every two laps. Each session you may get 10 - 13 laps in. I have been out there a few times with a single tank and lasted the day.

My bloody cars know when Wakefield trip is...

I will tow the trailor down. Going halfs on petrol sounds good with me Oz...

I know everyone would feel betta with a trailor down there... Just means you can push your cars that much harder!

Hey Baracade

The plan.

How about you collect the trailer and on the morning I can meet you at Pheasants nest (you know where that is?) and we can put the car on the trailer there and head down. Do the same on the way back and unload the car at Pheasants nest. Thsi way no one has to go out of there way.

I wish I still had a tow bar - No wait, I wish I still had a car able to have a tow bar able to tow a trailer.

NOTE; Chek TYre pressure of trailer, last time I towed down to Goulburn I nearly lost the trailer at 110kmh on freeway.
