Agenda: August, 08

Annual General Meeting was a great success – Business was concluded in about one hour and followed by various talks and demonstrations.

We had about 57 in attendance which means we should look for a new venue and we have done just that. We have now booked a New Hall at the Community Centre just Near Alvie Hall and right opposite the Rail Station.

All Address details will be posted very shortly.

Other items

  1. The SUBARU MOTOR (1.8 Litre EA – 82 to 94 Model 75 HP) is now in the hands of Darryn Farr and his son John who have been very busy setting the engine up as our base test engine. It will be on show at the meeting. We are very grateful for this effort. Darryn will also have his truck on show with a computer control system that will be of great interest. He is also striving for higher MPG with LPG.
  2. ‘THE BREATH OF FIRE’ This unit is the first stage of the GEET system that we intend to hook up to the Subaru engine. This is a most impressive demonstration. Watch out for the ‘FIRE BREATHING MAN’
  3. Cameron also has the latest updates on the Hydroxy development.
  4. The latest on the Bob Boyce cell
