Hi All,

I am planning on heading up to Top Gear for my bday in Feb and just thought I would throw the idea out there of people cruising up on the saturday (13th feb) and chilling in Sydney, having dinner somewhere and than all heading to Top Gear, staying overnight and heading back some time on the sunday...

You will need to book your own tickets but the rest we could arrange as a group...

Melly :)

p.s. Platinum seating is $129pp but all the details are on tikitek and http://www.topgearlive.com.au/sydney2009/ticket-information

Mercure at Parramatta last year was fantastic, reasonably priced, close to the location and good facilities. Hooters across the road and ran into Dick Johnson in the hotel! Show was a bit of a disappointment but we sure had a fun weekend.

Whenever we go to events there we stay at the Mercure and it's pretty good. There's a supermarket across the road along with 24 hour maccas for when you stumble home late! And of course as was already mentioned HOOTERS!!! Haha.

I found Top Gear to be a total waste of money, won't be going to this one.

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
