+ I am well ahead with Supercheap Club credits (although I didn't bother with this latest one)

+ Tas Networks have apparently under credited 10,000 of the 22,000 solar customers in Tasmania for a total of around 2.4 million. They sent me a letter today saying they will be checking our meter in April to see if we are affected. Plus they are going to send us a cheque for $30 to cover any inconvenience either way... Refund could be in excess of $200 if meter is faulty (which I doubt as been very happy with our solar rebates)

+ My Big Brother Richard arrives tomorrow (He has shouted us premium tickets to the Longford Revival)

Longford Revival Festival

- Marcos Ambrose has stepped back from his V8 supercar duties...

You lucky, lucky b@stard!!!

I would really like to go to the Longford Revival, unfortunately I have to head back to Broome for a week this weekend (away on Saturday, back on Friday).

+ We are going to the V8 Supercars at Symmons Plains on the 28th!!

Dazzler · **Reply #3121: March 18, 2015, 10:37:57**

I'm hoping to take lots of photos and videos at Longford

Now Marcos is not racing at Symonds, reckon we will just watch it on TV.

- A cricket started chirping in my room at 0130hrs.
+ My new $3-on-SuperCheap-credit solar powered torch located the cricket.
+ Chirping was thereafter promptly terminated.

Mate of mine spent many frustrating hours looking for a cricket in his house, moved all the cupboards & furniture , still could not find it. Turned out to be his smoke alarm chirping when the battery had gone flat.

If you need practice you can come and build me a sports engine, hopefully Hyundai will pay for the beneficial learning experience

Best of luck, even though that shouldn't be necessary.

Actually, one of the guy's from my little local Hyundai dealer went to Korea for that skill competition just a few years ago... I think he ended up as 5th...not bad.

MartyS · **Reply #3145: March 26, 2015, 12:46:30**

Went mod crazy and tried customising my entire front end by running up the ass of 2014 wrx that darted in front of me while we were doing 90 and stopped. I got the desired effect of having a front bar/bonnet like no other Australian has however I think there must be a cheaper way in the future lol.

Bright side? Atleast I can rebuild the entire front with what I wanted to do anyway so when shes fixed going to have a huge intercooler, huge turbo, upgraded exhaust system, much better lights and brake pads. Ill make some good come from this if it kills me lol.

+New rims and tyres on Jethro today.
-Not the rims I wanted. Procomp suppliers straight out lied by promising by Easter making me wait in hope for 5 weeks and then find out they never had them in Australia nor did they try to obtain any from overseas.

CraigB · **Reply #3148: March 27, 2015, 10:37:37**

Cant really make out the rims, tyres are nice and chunky...not very quiet on the road I bet but off road would be great

Rim suppliers seem to be going down hill lately, I had all those issues with broken promises of we'll be able to get this an that as well until I went to State West tyres who actually new what they were talking about.

cruiserfied · **Reply #3149: March 27, 2015, 11:10:17**

Rims are just usual "sunraiser" style that 90% of 4wds run. Probably try again end of year when I don't have a deadline and worse than bald tyres
