would be wicked

Red Frog · 07-09-2004, 04:38 PM

rob,

put me down for the 26th! i'm all done with uni then so that would be awesome to relax on a cruise

guess wot? i got just over 650kms out of my tank going to qld on fri/sat. was so proud of my little laser

james worked it out to be approx. 12L every 100kms i think which is fricking awesome! she performed flawlessly on the highway

even james commented on how well she excellerates!!! :mrgreen:

platypus · 07-09-2004, 04:40 PM

i worked it out to be 14KM per litre
and i did not say it accelerates well, stop putting words in my mouth
i said it seems to take off mid gear pretty much the same as my car, and it still needs to be shifted to 3rd gear to actually move

tidy protege · 07-09-2004, 04:48 PM

the 1.8s go well i was suprised how well my old blue car went

Red Frog · 07-09-2004, 04:52 PM

hey guess wot james? ..|.. :P ..|.. who's the perfectionist now?? and hun, if you worked it out to be 14L per 100km, that would mean i did 770kms on a tank. don't think i got that far. i only have a 55L tank. yes i am extremely bad at maths, but i'm pretty sure i didn't do 700kms +.....

platypus · 07-09-2004, 06:21 PM

but you only used 38 litres ..|.. ..|..

Red Frog · 07-09-2004, 06:23 PM

hmmm this is when i filled up in brisbane? that's true. i was working on a nearly empty tank me thinks. got 42L into it 2day thou. but that was at 560kms. not nearly as good. city driving suks! so does the pacific hwy ;P

dfvadr · 07-09-2004, 08:18 PM

hey you guys / girls if you got 650km's on a 55l tank u r doing better then 10 to the hundred , 550 on 55l would be 10 which converts to 28mpg

ok 650k's to miles is 404 , 55l to gallons is 12 so u divide the two together an you got 33.6mpg which is roughly 9l per 100 good work

QNC-29T · 07-09-2004, 08:59 PM

wat ever u are smokein rod give me some so i can sell it lol :twisted:

JYE12C · 07-09-2004, 09:58 PM

Stick to the criuse plan guys, whats the fordlaser.com group doing what are your plans for the day? Rob?

Laser the Amazer · 08-09-2004, 09:21 PM

not sure yet. I was hoping you could think of something. maybe a spot at mount sugarloaf like we always do.

I have no idea, trying to think where else there is to go.

Rob

BLK_MAZDA_3 · 12-09-2004, 08:22 PM

hey guys hopefully i should pick up my brand new mazda 3 hatch that friday before the cruise. i live in newy. i know a few of u's like jye and rob-8oe oh yeah my name is mitch or to couple of u's dat dat. any how i hope that i can pick the new car up in time so i can come so fingers crossed and hopefully i can met a couple of u guys
cya mitch

BLK_MAZDA_3 · 13-09-2004, 08:20 PM

so guys where are we all meeting?? as a couple of sydney guys want to come

platypus · 13-09-2004, 08:21 PM

where and what time?
i'm up for a sugarloaf meet up again!!

tidy protege · 13-09-2004, 08:39 PM

its up to you people name the place and ill be there is it still on the 26th

platypus · 13-09-2004, 08:47 PM

as far as i know

Red Frog · 13-09-2004, 09:06 PM

yep like i said before i'm up for the 26th. give us a time and a place and i'm there. i really don't know newcastle too well for good spots - unless we look at somewhere slightly nth of newy like near stockton or sth? - but maybe another mt sugarloaf mite be a good idea or the park that we stopped in on the last cruise overlooking the harbour. if anybody from around newy knows of a nice place please suggest!! bcos if it's tried and tested and is a good place, then we may as well have a go at it

i think fordlaser.com said a 9am meet up at thornleigh maccas. sounds good to me

if i treat u all like school children on the day ignore me. i will have been teaching 31 year 3 kids the previous week. if i start asking about mass and how much liquid could fit inside your boot or the cabin of the car, just sliently walk away...... :roll: :roll:
