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?

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
