Sorry for the late reply, but I have been HOONING!

Thanks alot fellas.

1700 kms in one trip was the most fun I think I'll ever have. No problems at all. Fuel consumption was close enough to 10 litres per 100kms. Every Holden with a LS in it I passed in 2nd gear just to make sure they knew I was there.

Rained twice on me! Oil temperature dropped of the gauge in Gympie at 4:30 in the morning. Louise was not impressed how cold it was. She looked like an Eskimo. I did not notice the cold.

Only two speed cameras over the entire trip. Funny how both were within 100 kms of my place!

The actual inspection was relatively easy. The worry/stress was worse then inspection.

Thanks Demi for the use of your trailer, I was very worried that I was going to get booked infront of your place. Would have blamed you for inspiring me to hit 120 in second. Actually thanks to everyone! (Rebel1, PCC, Boxhead, Aussie Mike, Wazza, 400tt and everyone else I have forgotten). All the people I have met from the is forum are so nice it is amazing. I think the friendships may even be better then the Cars!

Peace
