Well guys

I went to Calder Park today for a test and tune in the 1000 coupe and about 8 laps into a session, blew a freakin headie.

Not a big prob as we had the tools and and the know how so we contacted Truflow Performance Heads in Deer Park (top guys) and asked if they could do a surface grind which to my surprise he said bring it over and we will do it while you wait.. (5 mins $20)

Whilst this was happening i sent Cams old man to get a gasket.
Back in 45 mins with head and gasket.....back to the rebuild. Got the head back on , put in water......water pisses out the back of motor?????? Cams dad put the gasket in upsidedown .
This was after reasemling headers, carbs ect, so we though stuff it and took off all in one go, flipped gasket, torqed her up finshed her off. 3.5 hrs from start to finish. A couple of warm up laps at conservative rpm then stood on it and she went again.

Back on the trailer to fight again another day.

At least the other teams there were impressed with our commitment, and they gave us the comment you hate to hear "it was going hard up until then!"

Not a good Day!

Cheers
