Went to Heathcote with some of the boys for a test and tune day (Last Sunday)

I ran my car but only got 2 runs. The car felt very strong! best time was on the first run with a 60ft launch of 1.76. But however the car started to ping badly so I backed off early to save the car from any damage, and as a result it rolled over the line at only a 113mph pass but still managed 11.7 seconds!

Did a couple of things to try fix the issue, added more ocatane, re-flashed the tune but still it pinged so I called it the day.

If only the car didnt have this problem, a very low 11 second pass is in the grabs.

The next day, hearing a noise in the car and the drive wanst right. At one stage it didnt go into reverse so I drove the car to Preston Autos and told them about the problem. After a short test drive with Andrew we lost drive.

Plantary gears are gone! :spoton: Car will be back on the road by Friday I hope.

The price you gota pay for having power, but hey its worth it! :pinch:

Cheers,

Rob...
