Yeah my shitty 1999 Laser burnt through probably nearly $30 in fuel. But it's still worth it! Even though the day was shitty and I couldn't go to the beach, I got to have a drink at the Marlin, and enjoy 6 hours of open country driving! 
Including overtaking on the King's Hwy with an oncoming car flashing his lights at me (goddamned noob lol).
In fact funny story, I know the King's like the back of my hand. And it often has roadworks. One year there was a section newly tarmac'd(/resealed) with no marking and the usual "don't overtake unless safe" sign. It was previously an area with a dashed line and so I overtook some car over it with no problems. Then when the lines were painted in they were double-lined! So now it'd be illegal for me to do that. I don't mind that they did that, but the problem with the King's is that it has so few overtaking lanes and needs to be duplicated. On Monday I was driving at 80kmph for literally about 12-15 minutes behind a vehicle before I could overtake (the speed limit is 100), and at another point coming back I was following at about 70 (but only for 4-5 mins)!
On the Princess Hwy between Bateman's Bay & Ulladulla I'd say I was doing 90 average. That's the dangerous section, many years ago they put the speed limit down to 90 (it's back to 100) and I can't believe they didn't stick with it. So don't go thinking I'm some kind of speed-fiend!

"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
