For over 60 years, from one generation to the next, it’s been an Australian household staple. Families, athletes and health conscious individuals have long recognised Malt Extract as a natural source of concentrated energy. CSR Golden Syrup Since 1855, generations of Australians have enjoyed CSR sugars and syrups in their cooking and baking adventures. CSR Golden Syrup is a delicious golden-red syrup with a smooth caramel toffee taste and aroma. It retains its texture and prevents crystallisation, meaning foods keep their 'just baked' taste for longer. Treacle is any uncrystallised syrup made during the refining of sugar. The most common forms of treacle are golden syrup, a pale variety, and a darker variety known as black treacle. Black treacle, or molasses, Inside this month has a distinctively strong, slightly bitter flavour, and a richer colour than golden syrup.

  • MG Classic Race Meeting
    B Page 1 of 27 EDITORSPEAK … email Trevor [email protected] Well, they have been and gone and done it. Auckland Transport have announced they will introduce sweeping changes to speed limits as they signalled some time ago. As I have commented before their rationale is that “inappropriate speed” contributes to 20% of deaths and serious injuries in the Super City. So, from June next year the CBD will be saddled with a blanket 30 kph speed limit, and many of the Franklin and Rodney rural roads will reduce from 100 kph to 80 or 60 kph. A record 11722 submissions were received, of which 2503 were in support, 3317 against and the balance had no firm stance. I could point out that 80% of deaths and injuries have no connection with inappropriate speed. I could surmise that the decision largely flies in the face of public opinion. I could wish them luck in getting public buy-in and compliance. I could question how a major regulatory constraint on all rate payers can be decided by unelected bureaucrats rather than the Council. But frankly, why bother? They are Council Controlled Organisation but seem to have an independence that suggests no Council control exists. I sincerely hope I am proved wrong, but I foresee very little change to the accident statistics and very little adherence to the new limits. Enough said... I have been following the MotoGP with interest this season (yes, I know they are missing 2 wheels) and it’s been well worth it. With World Champion Marc Marquez being given a curry up by the rookie Quartararo, privateer teams often out-performing the factory teams and some scintillating racing it has been great to watch.

  • Simoncelli, Di Meglio and Dunlop Celebrate in Style!
    THE OFFICIAL MAGAZINE OF DUNLOP MOTORSPORT IN TOUCH [ www.injection.tv ] ISSUE TEN, NOVEMBER 2008 Simoncelli, di Meglio and Dunlop celebrate in style! Marco Simoncelli and Alvaro Bautista have been the most consistent finishers in the MotoGP 250cc category, each scoring in 13 of the 15 races this year and are first and second in the riders' standings with one race remaining, in Valencia at the end of October. With his third place finish in Malaysia mid-October, seconds behind Bautista at the chequered flag, it was Simoncelli who was crowned the 2008 250cc champion and the Italian celebrated by completing a helmet-less victory lap around the track. Simoncelli has scored five wins to Bautista's four so far this year, but the Italian has consistently finished on the podium. Mid-season he was on devastating form, finishing second to Mika Kallio in France, and then winning the Spanish and German Grands Prix, finishing second in Britain, and third at the Dutch Grand Prix. Bautista had fallen far behind by the time the bikes lined up in Spain, having scored one win, but just 16 more points in the Mike di Meglio wins the Australian 125cc race and Dunlop's 12th straight category title opening six races. The Spaniard worked hard during the second half of the year, starting on his home ground where he was second to Simoncelli, and that led Dunlop celebrates another successful to a run of six straight podium finishes, culminating in victory in South Africa.

  • Jack's Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 Race Wrap
    Jack's Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 Race Wrap... PRESENTED BY ADAPS - 100% AUSTRALIAN OWNED - QUALITY IT RECRUITMENT www.adaps.com.au This year marked the "50th Year of Bathurst", and it was a privilege to be driving for Garry Rogers Motorsport/Fujitsu Racing. The Bathurst race, the track, and the event is very special for me personally and for my family, with my father having tremendous success at this race across his 20 plus years of racing at Mount Panorama. The week kicked off on Wednesday, with a drivers parade through the main street of Bathurst, followed by an autograph session in town. The build up of the event, given the 50 years celebrations, was just massive, and the amount of fans and supporters that attended was simply awesome. The on track activity started on Thursday, with three practice sessions. This year I was driving with the Frenchman, Alexandre Premat, who had never been to Bathurst before, so the main priority on Day one was to give him as much track time as possible, and learn this tricky 6.2km circuit. Alex drove the #33 Fujitsu Commodore in the first and third practice session, while I drove in the second session, because it is a session for the co-drivers only. It was great to get out on the track and we managed the fifth fastest time. It was also good to get into competitive lap times straight away, also because we were on older practice tyres. Traditionally the GRM/Fujitsu cars are very competitive at Bathurst and I felt very comfortable straight away.
