We do, we have a co-op for a power company so costs are only high enough to cover expenses

In Adelaide we pay a lot more for power than all of the other states in Australia which is stupid, that is why people are leaving South Australia.

Is it a demand issue? Or a monopoly? Infrastructure maintenance costs?
If there is no good reason write to parliament they can bring the hammer down on them.
Around here the for profit companies have to get state approval and on occasion voter approval to raise rates.

Our state government over here are useless, for years People complain but the government does not seem to listen, all they talk about is a lot of rubbish.

I'm only putting 2.5k of them outside....(we had 800 already)
Some people on our street put that on one tree
We did get two standing lamps that will flank our front center garden. I need to repair a 3.5 foot lighted santa we have and install the 2.5 foot snowflake. Than trim the house wrap the tree and figure out how to trace the walk way....

Also, I have not abandoned you all just yet. I have a couple of new tunes that are completed, loads more still to work on. When time allows, I am working on new material for you all. Only problem is uni work has piled up in the last 2 weeks and it is getting rather stressful at times. New tunes to come soon though people.

 

[Otaliema]

High of 85F yesterday to a low of 18F tonight. I hate my state at this time of year.

Edit: Low went to 15F so 70 degree temp swing in 36 hours....ooohh my knees. (Sport injuries)

 

[pretend racer]

I had some time to try the new seasonals out so I took the 400pp sh Alfa Guila Sprint GTA 1600 '65 and managed gold at the beginner event.

Next I gave the 380pp sh Toyota Prius G '09 a go. Btw, in your tuning instructions you say Don't do an oil change, but I had to in order to get it to 380pp...

For the intermediate event I tried to use the 450pp ss Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta '61. I finished in second place, 10 seconds behind the leader!

Then I jumped into the 500pp ss BMW M3 Coupe Chrome Line. It was entertaining race, trying to stay out of the way of the huyra who kept trying to take me out. I managed to thread the needle through the last chicane as the hurya passed me on the outside in the first corner, then I cut back and passed him on the inside in the second corner and drove it home for gold!

 

[TripleE63]

Pretend Racer, you are a tough act to follow, but here goes...

For the beginner's seasonal I used the Audi TT Coupe 3.2 Quattro '07 (450PPSH). Nice tune, a little too much for this event.

For the Intermediate challenge I used the
Jaguar XJ220 ‘92 (600PP SS). I was surprised to see another XJ220 in the field. This is a good tune and a pretty good match for this event. Next I tried the Nissan GT-R '07 (550PP SS). This is a more challenging tune for this event. As Pretend Racer mentioned, the AI were a little aggressive after you pass 1st and 2nd place.

In the Expert event, I gave up on the 787B after several tries and used the Mazda VGT for gold. Both your tune and Otaliema's are good for gold . 👍

Is the Ferrari 365 tune a praiano tune by any chance? I don't have that car tuned in my garage. I am using a 550PP SS tune from Praiano on this car. After a change in parts, lightening the car to weight reduction stage 3 and redesigning the transmission, his SS tune works perfectly on SH tyres with his LSD and suspension settings unchanged.

Looking forward to seeing what you find for the third seasonal race.

 

[CBH]

I use your Ford GT ‘06 (550PP SS) for the Intermediate Level Non-Racing Car Challenge (600PP SS), I really enjoyed driving this car Shaun , you have done very well with the setup of this car up and it handles so well using my G29 wheel, thank you Sir for an outstanding car .

Hi. A couple of your tunes that are good for gold in

BEGINNER LEVEL NON-RACING CAR CHALLENGE (500PP SH)
Volvo C30 R Design '09 (470PP SH)
Chrysler Prowler '02 (450 PP SH)
Spoon CRZ (400PP CS)

All good tunes with no alterations

 

[svenhjs666]

Hello Shaun and all you guys and gals,
For the non race car TT, I got within .1xx of gold with your 500F before I gave up and used the Suzuki. For the FR race car TT, I used your 787B Stealth tune applied to the normal 787B. It works excellent by the way.👍 I am still playing with the drift trials, and haven't settled on my weapons of choice for those.
@svenhjs666 is on fire! Great scores Sven. Looks like you have recovered well.
Well, I had surgery on Tuesday to fuse 3 vertebrae in my neck to hopefully restore normal use of my right arm.
Cheers to all.

yep,recovery went very well.
only i don't like the repeated events anymore,it gets boring.

 

[CBH]

Many thanks @shaunm80 & @Otaliema for this Honda HSC '03 (540PP SS) tune and I made it into a 490PP tune, I used all your setting but I did not add any power parts to the car and I use my own transmission for the A-spec Intermediate Level Non-Race Car Challenge: Nürburgring GP/F .

Thanks for all the cool finds people! I have a lot of new tunes to add to the list. Once I have completed my annoyingly annoying reflective essay for uni I shall sort all these out. Keep up the great work!

 

[shaunm80]

All cars now added to the list. This weeks seasonal events have produced a bag of all sorts that can win these races. It is good to have variety for once. Well done PD! keep up the great work.

 

[CBH]

Thanks @shaunm80 I also use your BMW M3 GTR '03 (500PP SH) on SS tyres, the handling of the car is very good for the Intermediate Level Non-Racing Car Challenge (600PP SS), you have done very well on this tune .

Hey Shaunm80. I just did a 1:16.998 lap time in the 4WD non race car/tuned car seasonal using the Tommykaira ZZII '00 with your tune:tup:. Just tweaked the brakes to 6/4, Final Gear to 3.310,
And Torque Distribution Differential Centre to 30/70. Thank you, it's a great tune, Merry Christmas

It did. I was very surprised by this but I am hoping that JB gets a chance to show what he really can do in a great car next year. At least Nico can keep practising his "parking skills" around the streets of Monaco without affecting the outcome of qualifying anymore.

That is a very good time indeed. This car is definitely one to use at this PP range on SH tyres. Very stable and easy to drive.
