#1 It Blew up & it also won
COUP1200 Posted on: 2006/6/4 11:25
I went to the marque sports sprints today at sandown 4/6/06. I found out that i had a trophy owing to me for winning at phillip island. I have beaten those alfas fair & square. Its about time.
I won by .4 of a second but that is more than enough. As i only did 5 laps all day.
it makes the blow up feel a bit worth it.
Cheers
coops.
P.S Come racing in vic Benny

Congratulations, it was well deserved & I just know that the defeated opposition have it in the back of their minds that they were beaten by an engine that will cost a fraction of what theirs would to repair or replace, & when they realise that replacement core engines come from wreckers, or the trading post, it must really rub salt into the wound.

Build the new one strong, don't miss the shift, & give 'em heaps.

cheers

We had a race at Phillip Island on the 23rd. Well i blew up the A14. I had a big valiant chasing me down but his staright line speed was a bit much for the ol datto. So i held it a bit long in 3rd. Well 8700rpm & missed a gear was the end of my day. The crank pulley ended up on the race track at turn 1. Got 4 bent exhaust valves & i havnt checked out the bottom end yet. she will race again.
