A bit disappointed this year... Hardly any Benzes but the event did clash with the Southbank display for MBCV.

The V Line stream liner was a beautiful Art Deco design & it’s very sad it didn’t survive, but I heard the farings made the boiler overheat, which is hardly a good thing for a steam loco!!

And I nearly went last year!! Bugger I missed this racing 450SEL & maybe the opportunity to look under the hood... Sounds like a manual trans too!! https://youtu.be/pTf8GUJNFfU

I would pay attention to the wall thickness too, since you don't want to select a pipe that has an OD that appears sufficient but the ID is below the minimum required for optimum flow.

Sounds great! Not exactly around the corner but far better than Winton or another state!

You can never have too many tools!! I had to alter my planned technique due to the complexity & depth of the injector holes...

Armed with digital verniers I’ve started measuring...
