deadly boring, straight roads for many miles one stretch is 90 miles in the real measure known as the 90 mile straight naturally across the nullabor plain there is a roadhouse(service area) at each end more or less with plenty of boys in blue checking I have seen a pic of speedo at 190 kph engine on speed cut (governor) a similar engine/trans to mine .the artics(semi trailer to us) 2 trailers or b doubles are main freighters leaving depot in perth with upwards of 900 liters of diesel on board some are equipped with a tank on the lead trailer pumped forward as required letting them do 4,000 or km without a fill sleeping in the cab using roadhouse to clean up etc the heat becomes a problem if the air con stops or a tyre pops but winter ??? top temp is not less than 15*c nights go below 0, summer well we have had 47*c 2pm 14*c at 4am thats just out of ceduna south australia in early feb
