Posted: Sun Mar 29, 2015 9:18 pm
racing went well Vaughan. got a 2nd , 6th & 7th. not bad considering half way thru race 2, engine ate all the oil, v-tec stopped, check engine light came on & went into limp home mode. be an engine swap before I am up at ruapuna for final round in 3 weeks. still leading the inaugural championship; just...
Anyway enough about that; washed the coupe for first time ever, and more importantly I drove it for the first time properly ever in its 8 year history under my ownership.
Took it out for final detailing, blatted it up the road, thru the gears up to the ton! was screaming! unfortunately my big plan of a video of a wide open throttle fly by, went tits up due to lack of fuel / flat battery as a result of charge circuit problem....
but still had an ear to ear smile, the ITB's were singing at full noise and car sat pretty nice on the road too!
I can finally say with meaning it - Akaroa this year boys
