Just count your lucky stars that you don't have a driveline with matchsticks like i do. GRRRRRRRRRRRR

Makes it hard to really lean on it of the line,and even less realistic to try and run semi slicks.So thats why i don't bother.

Good luck man.

shame to retire it - just kept getting quicker everytime it hit the blacktop.

hamo loves the car - i waved to him, he waved back with the big cheesy grin. great to see people having a blast at the track.
