Ok.....couldn't help myself yesterday. After washing the car on the front lawn, I convinced my self that there simply was not enough room to turn the Sunny around on the front lawn, so I really needed to drive it down the street to turn it around

I basically went to the end of the block and turned around at the round about..... Coming back up the street, I thought I may as well give it a little stick.......it accelerated nicely from low down in first gear....better than I thought it would actually.....but then when the boost kicked in..... ...... the back tyres just lit up and the car stepped a little sideways, I grabbed second gear and the smile was from ear to ear.

Anyway...that's all she wrote for yesterday, after that, I backed the car into the garage and it is now ready for inspection tomorrow night by a scrutineer from CAMS. Assuming all is OK, I will be on the track testing on Friday (Oran Park GP)....so if your around the area on Friday, come out and say hi....I'll be the one with the big cheesey grin on his face

Yeah, fingers crossed.....it's the only hit out I will have before the Datsun Nationals.

Hope to see you out there.....I believe there might be a few different IPRA guys going out on Friday, should be good.
