Oops lol

Was hoping no one else seen that.

Looks like I drove straight off the road doesn't it. I actually whacked the backside of the car in front and the back end went light, by time I had the slide under control I was on the grass. That gravel fair slows you down, I was belting along the grass at some speed!

Had the car rolling roaded today

Was running 78 bhp

Now running 91 bhp

Alot better considering the only mods are a k,n filter

The guy said the carb was way out,so now instead of chasing the other cars hopefully overtake some

Thats a good increase in power especially on these cars as they weigh nothing.
