    What an awesome night! I got a few snaps but none were really any good. It's been a while since I've toyed with the camera - need to do some playing and pick it all back up again I think.

    Here's a slow-ish exposure I was sort of happy with though - the lighting wasn't right to bring out all the pretty colours...

    The suspention isn't slowing you down that much, it's more your wheels if anything.

    Couldn't believe it, that last little stretch and I saw the tail lights ahead of me so I backed off a bit, then i came around a corner and BAM! there is was, doing all of about 10kph in a 60 zone because a corner had appeared up ahead.

    Bloody volvo driver.....

    Yeah, I don't know about keeping up with Gavs, but I don't think I slowed up the group as much as expected...hahaha I do recall a look of disbelief when I mentioned it was diesel hahaha

    My Average fuel was 6.9L/100km after the run, up from about 4.9 haha
