    I reckon the number of replies in this thread is the cause of ausmicro’s timeouts. 😀

    Please delete this thread. 🙂

    Geo,

    That’s the one I went to, you get there by going to level 3 of darling harbour shops and walking across the short pedestrian bridge to get to the car park. There are actually two hotels there now… Anyway, not to worry.

    Might have to check out Homebush way…

    🙂

    Yes, have to check out homebush way one day – it’s not too far from meadowbank either…

    I checked out the car parks that Geo-z mentioned at darling harbour, walked up a stair well to get to the top level, (that stairwell smelt like piss and vomite combined, broken beer bottles everywhere – I was makin sure that there weren’t any used syringes lying around). Anyway – I get to the top level, couldn’t find anywhere to run a z because there’s now a hotel on top of the car park.

    oh well…

    hmms.. so why is it $21.95 at the penrith store rather than the $2.50 per mm thickness that u sed???

    And at penrith they only had one of the grey eva foam mats 1m x 2m rolled up.. the rest were thicker.. so is it cheaper at the haberfield store or what?

    Don’t really know why it’s cheaper at the haberfield store. Perhaps transport costs are higher to get the mats to Penrith ? :smiley16:

    Certain shells are stronger than others, so it seems. The Benz shell has a strong front and low spoiler – ideal for pushing debris out of its way. I run slightly smaller offset rims at the front so that the front wheels are protected from collisions. :):):)

    Yes, its called ‘used’ eva foam mats. Call the Haberfield Clark Rubber store on Parammatta Rd to see if they have any in stock. The manager there said that they get pallet loads of the stuff on a regular basis.

    Nah, not me. I’ve gotten tired of watching reality tv shows.

    I limited my viewing to csi, law and order criminal intent and svu and charmed.

    I think it would be good if we compiled a list of all the places in Sydney/Melbourne that you can take a mini-z for a thrash be it a park, netball court, car park, etc.. as this is the most faq 🙂

    I don’t think you’d want to use the kiddy play mats with animal/numbers/alphabet characters cut in them unless you enjoy doing jigsaw puzzles. When the cut out characters fall out from the mat.. man putting them back together gives me headaches.

    So with the carpet, are you looking at getting some of that ozite racing carpet ?

    What about the carpet they use to on office cubicle wall partitions ?

    You mean the ones on ebay, in the link above ? They look like it. You can get the interlocking kids playmats for something like $7 for 10 which are 30cm x 30cm tiles at those cheapy bargain shops – however they have animal/alphabet/number etc characters cut out of them.
