CCCCC, Aulrioan Comp 1, How much fuel will we use.

[Blknight.aus]

AS part of the run for the CCCCC report for the AULROian Im putting up some prize packs.

The first one will be either a jerry of mine from the trip that will be decorated with memorabilia picked up on the trip or a coupon from somewhere like supercheap for a plastic jerry.

What you have to do to win it is reply to the official comp thread (or this one till its up) with your guess as to how many liters of fuel we purchase on the whole trip. As we fill up on the trip the literage purchased will be tallied and the person with the closest guess wins.

Any WVO I pick up wont count as it wont be paid for fuel.
The fuel tally will be from each persons kick off point (my place for grey knight) to where the break off if they cut short OR are not returning directly to their start point. If they are returning directly to their start point then that fuel will also count.

There will probabley be errors but since Im going to endevour to have my access to the thread revoked till after I get back and I'll be tallying the fuel used it wont matter.

Is that for all vehicles? How many are going?

[Blknight.aus]

yes sum total of all fuel used...

cant remember, look it up on the ccccc thread but i think from memory

2 td5 discos
1 td5 deefer
2 puma deefers
1 SIII 2.25d1
1 rangie

the td5 deefer will be towing a camp trailer some of maybe all of the time
one of the discos will be towing a camper
I think both the pumas will have a camper trailer on.

I'm betting that the V8 Rangie will use 1/3 of the fuel:p

Dave what have you been smoking?????? You complain so much about my car (the one and only Puma on this trip!) and then you majically make another one apear on our trip ?? WTF :confused:

[GuyG]

Well I think its a given that I will use the most fuel on the trip considering that I'm the only petrol vehicle, have a greater capacity engine and more cylinders than the other cars, but the question remains what percentage of the total fuel used will be in the Rangie:eek::eek2::burnrubber:

It was a deliberate ploy to generate more interest in the trip.... If they want to have a hope of guessing correctly they have to search for the right information....


Thats my excuse, Im sticking to it.
