Kameleon tender and juicy! He is mutton not lamb!
Regards to fuel, well, yes it is true but you could use a full tank of fuel on the first day.
I also use 10 litres for a session then fill again for the weight save idea. Its worth while using this system as you will save over 30kg of weight.
An friend of Admin has signed up today. He has a EVO which will be in over 2.2 invited. Thanks Admin

I'd be arriving with a full tank of fuel. I usually empty the whole tank at a typical track day so I'll be going into town after the first day to fill up again and have a full tank ready to go for the second day.
A jerry can would be a good idea just in case you run out with only a few sessions to go or to make sure you have enough to get back to town if you're running on fumes. The turbo and V6 guys should definitely bring a jerry can because I've only got an NA and I can finish off a tank. There's actually a bloke with a CLK 63 AMG who comes to the Circuit Club days and he needs to fill up at lunch time haha.
Oh and I'll be happy to man the BBQ for a bit. I wouldn't worry too much about not having enough people cooking. If you're competent enough to fill your car with petrol, you can turn some snags.

Kameleon probably tastes better than a Tree, but theyre full of fat and taste quite alcoholic.....
Ill be bringing the jerry can, but the car will be filled right up from the start. Meh to weight!
Car arrives back at the shop tomorrow night in 41 deg heat...... so wont be touched tomorrow (hopefully saturday, thought the shop owner is closed atm...)
Its funny you say anyone can spin a sausage, as ive met retards who struggle with that taste over the years haha

Full tanks then?! Challenge accepted  lol I feel sorry for the tyre/suspension shop working on my car tomorrow, was told to drop her off at 8:45am, probably due to the heat wave hehe. Fat and alcohol? Sounds like a awesome recipe for BBQ. Fark man I'm salivating...

All these sausage jokes, better order so big italian ones so Dennis may get lucky of he manages to make it. Alcoholic sausages.. now there's a thought.
I just fitted the passenger seat today which will make up for the full tank I refuse to run. Its a kevlar Recaro but hey, its still weight.. Will have it 100% but Sunday.
The program will sent out to everyone in the next week but I will need to know who would like the first hour to test their car to make sure it ready for the competion. The reason being, I will allocate these people to the short circuit for the first 30 min while cars which are sorted and good to go, will be straight onto the CAMS hillclimb track. With the short circuit, you have pit lane access to sort out your car before unleasing your weapons ( I can see more humour out of that statement..).
I put a call out to MR2 NSW to come down on the Monday night for the phot shoot. Hope they can make it as they have two things. Cool cars and cool camera's.

I think the Pearl will need a shake in session at the start, won't get a chance before the day. Full cage configured to the new 2013 2 person standard, opens up a lot of events. Finished today.
The seat may be kevlar but this fatty wants a ride so add another 95kg!

Great to see its coming together Eckers. At least its only the cage and not electrical or engine mods so should be OK. We will be sharing a garage. Dont want Kam to get bored!
Soundsd like a great idea gatesys, you will have a blast racing with Ian and Adrian who have the same car. Will also have you guys next to each other with garages.
Circuit club ticket is a giveaway provided by circuit club for the event. This is only available to MTC entrants.

Yeh man there's a solution if you look hard enough. I'm using a credit card to pay for this and I've only got like $500 left, zero balance for everything else. Unemployed right now so I can't hold out for too long and can't ask my folks cos hell will break loose if they found out about some "track day" lol (lucky they don't know what r-compound tyres look like...)
