I have entered at the nats, entered last year didn't have any probs you just have to stay away at night and don't go round the back road later on.

^^ i remember last year i was at the shell servo entrance seeing your 32 go past, my mouth dropped! i believe the words were "God daaayum!" widest 32 ive ever seen!!!

Yeah I saw Leigh hook a left as well..... are you mad? :P

Was a good night, I think we picked the right time to leave as well..... I didn't realise that just about every car that drove down lonsdale street could be "randomly" inspected. Funnily enough I didn't really see any car all night put a foot wrong.

Some nice cars though, we saw Rumble, a white R34 GT-R, one white and two red R34 GT-t's, too many R33's to remember, a few 32's (2 silver GT-R's among them), ran into Nick and Ewan, etc etc.

Tomorrow night should be a cracker.....

My nasty mother-in-law gave me a season pass for christmas. :)

So I guess I'll have to go then.

It was great to see so many cars out tonight, just wish that all those awesome local cars would come out more often.

Hope to see a good turnout at the museum tonight before hitting braddon (and the pubs)!

As per my annual routine,we'll be eating at the restaurant on the roundabout in the middle of Lonsdale St (Da Cellini's...)so we can kick back and enjoy the show. I've got one spare spot,seating wise(Leech,you get first dib's,as you posted up your interest first!);we'll be there from 6.30 with a mixed bag of SAU'ers,Ducati owners,a few V8 nuts and me + E:all good peeps...

Beacause i was sitting on the arse of two police officers on motorbikes that went straight through that round about who i caught up to a little two quick. I just went straight through the roundabout anyways i didnt turn down into the ques :)

Leigh why did you turn left at the round about into the the dead lock traffic and breath tests lol :P

    • If go with OVO or similar, you can buy electricity off peak periods of the day for next to nothing, i.e. when the sun is out and everyone is exporting and noone is consuming. I'm also planning to join a VPP and sell back during peak hours. Bro science stacks up, and also the battery inverter has a spare MPPT port, so I could add another solar array. I still have the roof space for at least another 7 panels.  
    • I might need to invest in at least another battery, maybe...as the battery going in is a 19.2kWh, which is larger than I initially thought when I replied, the panels are 10.56kW
    • It appeared like someone was well triggered. Seems the way they mention finances, and business the way they do, that there's some major financial insecurities, or just insecurities in general and someone feels they need to try and put people down. 
    • My 3.8 kW system (when new, not so much nearly 20 yrs later) will do 21 kWh per day (best few months of the year), and that's with an afternoon shading issue. So it really could/should be able to do maybe 24. So a 6.6 kW system probably cannot fill a 40ish kWh battery from scratch, but then it is very unlikely to ever need to. Let's presume that you use 10-15 kWh during the day and stash the rest. So long as the battery isn't drawn down below ~50%, it'll be fine. And that draw down presumes using 20 kWh overnight, which is a reasonably heavy draw. So that seems reasonable. The 40kWh will be good for extended outages, and very bad days where you get almost no generation for a day or two. Might struggle to top it all the way back up after it gets pulled all the way down though. I'd think you'd probably want about 10 kW of panels to make life a little easier, wrt keeping a 40 kWh battery charged. But then....does it really need to be at 100% every day? Probably not.
