Default Re: Geez! I hate that!

No Poppa, I wouldn't do the trip down and back non stop, just one way then stay a few days then return. The rock was my cruise control as XR6WGN said. Once propped in just the right spot it would hold the car within a 10-12kph range depending on conditions, and it was rounded so as to be easily flicked out the way if I needed to get off the throttle. I used to finish work at 4.30 on a Friday, be on the road by 5 and do Alice to Whyalla in about 10.5-11hrs then have a snooze if I was buggered before heading down to Lincoln. Best I ever did was Alice to Pt Lincoln in 13.5hrs.
