Just picked this bad boy up, boy does she fly,and just after buying loads of goodies for my Ceramic Blue Turbo
Drove to Dorset and back through the night,not long in,bloody knackered, but as matty would agree,was worth the drive!

Couple of things to do, Sort breather on catchtank spilling over bay, Tappet or two sometimes noisy

Roll on Knockhill next month

yeah, going round corners with this power in the wet slides the car on all four. its quite predictable which was rather unexpected :) it does the same in the dry if you have keen feet :p
