Hello, been a while since I posted. Was very active on here once upon a time. So after the original AU TURBOTAXI was sold in 2011, I have had an XR6T and and FG F6. And yes, all fitted with vapour or liquid LPG. All high K cars.
In 2015 we became farmers and went to 4WD's. I have hired hi-Po BMW's, Audi, been in Porsche and Ferrari and and others around the world since. The F6 is still the value for money standout. None of the Euro stuff sub $200k was as quick as the stock FG F6. I recently drove across North America in a 2016 Turbo BMW, still had nothing on the F6. Maybe economy edge... Who cares when fuel is $2.90 USD a gallon. I sold my FG F6 in 2014 for $18k what a freaking bargain. If you can own one buy one. These are a cult car in the making.

Yeah, I agree too long between drinks. Masters in 2012 and 2013, new job in 2009 as a region manager of a State Govt dept, partner started working again in 2014 after 14 years at home, president of Gun Club, Captain of Pistol club throughout...... Becoming a farmer and working full time is bad for time.......
Renovation of houses...... 12 hours a day. Also spent month at a Time overseas in North America, New Zealand and Asia....... Plus trying to keep up with annual motorcycle rides, for various causes and track days in between. All this is fluff, yes, it has taken time, but I just have had other stuff to do.
