KJ's At Mt Panorama

Well, just one....Mine!!!
Lizzie and I just got back from our 2 week tour of NSW.
The KJ was brilliant, didn't miss a beat in 3500K's of fully laden, mountainous roads.
One highlight for me was to do a few laps of Mt Panorama.
This must be the steepest, scariest, baddest track around, and gives you a real sense of respect for the guys that race here flat chat.
I did one slow lap, to get the tyres warmed up..hahahaha :roll:

Then a couple of "hot" laps...navigator was not impressed with the squealing tyres, or the fact I got the passenger side in the air around the Esses.
Great fun!!!

Super happy with the fuel consumption, as I said, fully laden, ran BP ultimate where I could and returned figures on 11.13L/100K's

Cheers,
M.

Sounds like a good trip Mikey, I did Mt Panorama in my old Holden VT. Almost had a head on with some wanka that was realy pushing his car :roll:

Other than that it was fun.

Yeah, it was a great break, we both needed it badly.
Here's a couple more from the trip, this is about as off-road as it got.

At a B&B in Singleton

A great lookout in the Blue Mtns that we had to ourselves.

Just one of the great drives we had.

Great to hear you had a good time, a great break with good scenery and arrived home safely ready to give the KJ another go next week-end. You can tell us all about your adventures (& fuel economy) around the camp fire.

Hi Chris...
I got it from Ozltd (CRDSTU).
Think it was his old one, got it cheap.
He might be able to get another.
