Just to clarify for me please...

coming from hoppers up the ring road (heading towards greensborough) Can i go PAST the sydney road exit, get on the new bypass part (which i think they call hume fwy?), and will that bring me back onto sydney road (hume hwy) just before donnybrook?

or is it quicker to just take the sydney road exit, and go straight down till i reach donnybrook road ?

That is correct, you go PAST Sydney Rd exit, and onto the Hume Extension.

Saves you a good 10mins easily

Brings you out at the BP so you just hook a right onto the hume and look for the Shell on the left a little way up. Previous gatherings have been on the left in the gravel car park as you turn in. Trucks are round the back along with lost skyline and subaru drivers! :wave:

Don't listen to him, he's from England... :wave:

Yes. Stay on the WRR - go past the Hume HWY exit - as the new freeway bit is just up the road. It curves to the left and becomes the Hume FWY. You don't need to turn onto the old road - it joins up in Craigiburn.

The Shell is on the Hume just after the new road becomes the old one.

And yes - as Alan says - gravel carpark on the left of the servo as you pull in.

DOH! Sorry Dezz. It used to though before it was fully linked up. Possibly 2 or 3 years ago actually :(

I completely forgot from the last time. ;)

**Edit - I knew I wasnt all mad! It used to exit at Cooper St BP. :)

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.

      I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋

      Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
