Smashing it. But will you hold or sell

HOLD! It's a spec stock and they've possibly stumbled onto the largest unconventional oil reserve in America - think larger than eagle ford. And this is in spite of the price of oil sucking a dick right now. Potential for a 10x here, so...call it greedy...but...I'd rather lose it all than miss out on the big time :)

Not too late to get on it, it's undervalued even with the massive gains recently

Yep...it used to be called Tangiers Petroleum...traded at $1 plus...they drilled an offshore (iirc) well in Monaco that turned out to be a duster. Share price tumbled baaaad, welcome to penny stock. Company changed name, new CEO, recruited an expert on oil - dude who effectively discovered eagle ford shale sweet spot. Planned an exploratory drill on a slope in Alaska where most companies had avoided but there were known shale deposits. 85% gov rebate on drilling in Alaska, so a 50 mil operation costs you 7 mil. This well...ain't a duster (so far). Metric shit ton of oil - just a question of how useful/viable it is. There is a very slim chance that the share price could return to $1 long term, if a joint venture is created or if one of the big boys buys out the company. The goal is to prove up the acreage they own and wait for oil price to return to make a shale drill profitable (I think it needs ~$50 a barrel). 88E own 200,000 acres of land worth $30 an acre at the moment...once oil is proved up, could be worth $3000 an acre. Roughly translate the share price in the same way and you'll get why I am not selling yet.

That's the long and short of it!

Betting on commodities to increase will be a long journey. There is more supply than demand.

They saying iron ore won't grow until 2020. I think they saying oil still has room to drop.

I'm not really betting on it to increase, even though an increase in oil price would be a great factor - I'm betting on this company to prove up the value of the acreage they own so that another company can bet on an increase in oil price. Therefore I don't really have to wait for oil to come back, only for a company to know that the finite resource will one day again be worth more than ever and that it would be stupid not to purchase the land from the explorer even in current climates (low price of oil). They are already in talks with potential joint venture partners so that could be a reality soon, but yeah it's tough to know when to get off the ride...risk vs return I guess.

This is true.

Being at Barry's is f**king funny. If you didn't know anyone it looks like the most unfriendly place with the bulky westside regulars hanging around and his own dodgy demeanor. It's farkin family though, feels like home on a Saturday arvo.

Might organise some dyno time with RP to tidy up the E85 tune. New head gasket has raised compression marginally and the tune is 3-4 years old anyway.

Birds - my series 2 seats are still taking up room at my old place. Yours for free if you want them

I feel stupid not taking them, tried to convince Leesh to replace her back breaking replica, but no dice. You tried ebay?

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
