Default A1 Race Eastern Creek

HI GUYS

Just back from the A1's at Eastern Creek . They are making big improvements
to spectator area at Eastern Creek. Should be great for the v8s in June.
Had a great weekend. The car got dirty but the Bra worked great.Petrol consumption in the Boss was 10.20lt per 100k or 28mpg . Had to check that
my wife did'nt do an engine swap with the xr6 before I left "wrapt" Looking
forward to next outing"


Regards

GT425

Yeah, I'm keen to see some pics too. Haven't made it to the A1 yet. Glad you had a good time. Must have been taking it pretty easy on the throttle for the fuel economy ;) , pretty good figures.

Saw you in town one morning last week. I don't think you recognised me in our "shopping trolley" (Sal's Festiva with the pink seat covers), lol.

I'll definitely be there for the V8's this year.

was not available the 525 hp A1 motor would do

Then in photobucket, upload all your pictures into your album, then open up your album so you can see all the pictures on the screen,when you select the picture you want to use in Ford Forums, under your picture put your mouse in the box next to IMG CODE and left click once, then a little yellow box will come up marked "copied". Then on another screen you have your Ford Forum page open where you want to type your messages where you normaly do to post a message, put your mouse curser in the open box where you normaly type your message and right click your mouse and then click paste, then hit the enter button to return the cursor for the next line, and then you can select another picture and repeat the prosses and when you are done with all your entrys click preview post button and see your Ford Forum message come up with all your pictures, and if you like it click submit message and your up and running.
