    I think this proves you need to move to Sydney - its the driving to Briz that costs us money

    no, i hate your retardedly high temperatures, and besides, our beaches are better and have less lebs. i think i need to not speed as i approach the QLD border as the NSW cops wait there for QLD drivers heading home...

    i should mention for you peasants that students get half price entry to the track ($10)

    yeah it was great after the long trip last year to only fork out $10 well..except for everyone else..because they aren't students...
    i think i spent $100 all up last year for this trip, not including flights.

    Yeah, I think last year cost me about $127 all up.

    So stop whinging about price I'm sure you have all spent that on a weekend before..... It was actually a fair bit cheaper than expected

    $130 isn't bad. Although to be fair I can sleep just about anywhere - it's been proven in can fit into overhead storage compartments in planes, and fold away for underbed storage.

    OK - I'm in. Just confirmed my leave. Haven't sorted accommodation yet - will do that over weekend. I'll be staying on in Melbourne (or going down the Great Ocean Road or something) until the Grand Prix, then working a week before heading home. So I'll be in Melbourne or thereabouts for two weeks.
    I'm taking my car (nice cruisy Falcon, so four comfortable seats, but a fifth person could fit in if necessary as well without needing legs or head amuptations, unlike a certain 200SX) - so there's space for Cyco (if he has no d/l), FPV, Whiteballz and any other person who wants it. At least for the trip down. Since I'm coming back later, we may have to work out the trip back. Hoping Cyco can/does take his car.
    Let me know who's likely to need a ride down. And, importantly, petrol isn't an issue. Its officially a work trip and since I'm not flying down, they'll pay the equilivilent cost to the air fares in petrol money. That may make it easier for those on a budget to make the decision to go (you're running out of excuses FPV....).
    Also, first stop in Melbourne is to stop by Slick's place and force him to join us for Phillip Island. I won't take finance issues or car problems as an excuse...

    If he can't drive it i will

    Hopefully i've paid all my bills by then - i Owe about $600 to various sources which doesn't sound like much to you guys, but it's a bucket load to me.
