Yeah it would have been dark or light only coming up, both dangerous. We really gotta keep in mind how dangerous the road is every time we go out on it, no matter what vehicle we are in.

Police Sergeant Kevin Hickson said it appeared the woman was not wearing a helmet and her bike did not have lights.

She was also believed to be listening to music.

The trifecta.. Said none the less that's someones mum/daughter etc

Deaf, dumb and blind?

The membership applications come through on committee email Tony - think I've seen one or two accountants on the applications, but none active on the forums...thus I thought of you lol. PM Ross about what's involved but I think it's basically BAS and end of year financials. In between that, approving/paying invoices electronically and approving/reimbursing committee for their expenditures.

U need log book more than receipts if I'm not mistaken log book needs 15 weeks of travel lasts 5 years

Can only claim minimum amount without supporting docs

log book ay?

chick at work said she claims 80% of her car expenses based solely on the fact that we're only supplied with 'group lock up' space for our tools, so all the guys we work with can access them...They're not gonna steal em but it means technically we may need to carry our tools in the car as we don't have private lock up at work...

claims fuel/tires/servicing/car washing etc too

I'll ask her if she keeps a log book

Lol dezzman if you were a client. You'd be raking up a bill by now.

Alex is on the money.

If you want to claim 'actual' receipts you need a log book. Requiring a log of 12 continuous weeks and is valid for 5 years unless your circumstances change. Also you need to keep all receipts.

Alternatively you can use what 80% of people do and just use the cents/km method. Up to a maximum of 5,000km, you can claim a set rate.

I.e 5,000 x 0.75 = $3,750 of deductions without receipts.

tailgaters need to die

had some moron come up within a few cm of my rear bar and stayed there. slammed on the brakes in the middle of the road and got out, f**khead turned around and took off

if i had got my hands on him i would've put his head through his own windscreen

how do you expect people not to have road rage when there's dumb f**ks like these holding a drivers license

    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
    • Sorry I meant that we are building the EH for a client.
