First blast tonight

Well I had a nice surprise when I got home tonight as my reg documents were sitting there waiting for me, so for the first time in 2 months I was able to take the car for a proper drive.

First port of call was the local Shell garage for some nice Optimax ( only 38 ltrs from empty ) then it was off for a blast round my locals.

I have to say I had forgot how much fun a 4wd car can be in the wet ( its pissing down here ) and how very predictable too.

First impressions are, the car pulls well and is making .8 - .9 bar at 6500, but feels VERY strong. I will be taking it to Abbey soon for a dyno check. I am very pleased with it, the only down side is the cluch is slipping ( at the moment only when booting from low revs ) so I will need to change it soon.

I cant wait for the first track day I can get to :twisted: :twisted:
