seeing the back of it mate.....lmfao

Nah in all honesty mate, it doesn't have too many mods BPR CAI, Herrod cat back, and thats about it. Was good for 13.6 on my first ever go with Bourney, but traction was a VERY big problem due to 19inch tyres.

I wish I had high flow cats, extractors, lower diff ratio, with these I should be doing 12's consistantly( so Chris at BPR advised me).

I might be able to get down for pics only, that way I can leave early.

Cheers
Mick

the weather prediction (well from today, may change 100 time before wedensday : ) is fine and sunny 24 degrees.

we'll meet up in the pits around near the front of the scrutineering shed. i'll have my jack if anyone needs to change streets to slicks.

gates open 5pm and racing from 6pm.

if anyone else from AFF would like to join us you're more than welcome. we have a lane booked and 15 spots free.

gee, quick turn around!!

glad to hear!

Wow, glad to hear the old girl is still going well! did you talk to the bloke?

13.1 sounds bloody fantastic! wonder what has been done to it (probably took the spare out n ran semi slicks )

I still have to put the 5 down, probably when winter hits and it's tuned
