Generally E85 is more power, but also a lot more useage,

E10 I would think would be similar power and slightly more useage.

With E85 they will need shorter races, larger tanks, or fuel stops.
( or more mystery safety cars)

This Gull deal is news to me but all the same good to have a new partner. I wasn't aware BP weren't involved this year, anyone know why.

My man from in IMS says that their two cars have hardly been touched since last round and one car has no pilot.

You might be surprised then with the Turn out next Weekend.

Good on you, I am sure both meetings will be worth the Travel.

Years ago my Dad and I didn't miss to many Manfeild meetings, we use to drive there and back in the Day (4 hours each way) but its ages since I was last there.

Surprised Happy sould be the outcome, and not long to wait.

Have just had to pull the pin on Attending next weekend, so a bit gutted about that.

Just saw the iSport falcon on the back of a trailer heading up Ascot Ave here in Auckland. Looks great even in matt black without it's livery.

Yeah cool story bro I know but really looking forward to next weekend now

NZSTfan · 9 Feb 2013, 01:22 (Ref:3201515)

Just had a quick look at the 7 day forecast as predicted by Metvuw....

http://metvuw.com/forecast/forecast....zni&noofdays=7

And it appears, at this stage, Saturday should be fine and calm. The forecast doesn't go any further than 7am on saturday morning, but with the isobar setup, it looks as if another anticylcone should be heading this way towards the end of week.

Bad news for farners, but good news for R1.

I predict that if the weather is fine, there should be a huge turnout at HD

Metservice's 10 day forecast also suggests this, and predicts temps around the mid 20's.

May pay to bring ya sunblock along

That's what they said in the head lines. The News people always get things wrong Maxi you know that!

Apparently Murph wasn't allowed to paint his wheels black so he's been belting everyone with his handbag.

Nope he's just a racer passionate about his sport who doesn't want to see it destroyed by ticket-clipping buffoons who think they 'are' the sport.

Maybe he's passionate about losing his slice of the pie.

Crikey, look at the spelling, grammar and typos in post containing the words "note spelling"
