Hey guys, can I propose a venue for the Feb meet eats? Korean BBQ at north parramatta. We've been there before and its meaty goodness ahoy. No parking issue as there's a huge free carpark across the road. Www.BBQ.com.au. who's keen?

Sounds good to me.
It's been a while since we've done a dinner drive from the meet.

There is an extensive build thread for my car here: http://www.mr2australia.com/mr2play/tm.aspx?m=18316

I'll be there.
I'm doing an Adrenalin 'Triple Supercar Blast' (Ferrari, Porsche and Maserati) earlier on the same day. Quite a good Valentine's present!

I'm excited to experience the luxurious interior, overall build quality and ride quality, and I'm very interested to feel the power delivery of the Ferrari (F430 Spider I believe) compared to my MR2. I don't really care about the Maserati and Porsche, but I'm sure I'll enjoy them too haha.
In theory my MR2 has a similar or slightly higher peak power than the Ferrari, but the Ferrari should have MUCH more low-end torque. I imagine that the Ferrari will feel like it has a never-ending torque band, and it would be much better when accelerating from low RPM, BUT it probably won't offer the crazy rush of power that my MR2 has when the boost comes on.
If anything I think I'll love my MR2 even more after this! I love that my MR2 is tame and easy to drive at low RPM, and there is crazy boost and torque waiting on tap at mid-high RPM whenever I want to use it.

For sure; I can only imagine that the power would be much more dramatic in your MR2 than the Ferrari. That and with the MR2 having a better power/weight ratio. But it sounds awesome! Looking forward to hearing what you think after driving it.

They might expand it to the 'Quadruple super car blast' and include your car if you take them for a spin.
