Thanks Graeme.
It was a bit of a hoot.
Only slightly worrying bit was watching the junction pass by on the right hand side with your front wheels locked up and on-coming trafic.
Made me think I should be abusing my car a bit more :-)
Those nissan clutches and gearboxes are a tribute to Jap engineering (based on the abuse you gave them)
Time to re-fit the boost controller?
Paul.

Well that's how you sell it to your wife lol
It's great doing the ol' passenger ride/try to scare the pants off someone thang, just as long as the speed dosent overtake your brain
& skill capacity!!
Took my older brother out a few years ago at Mallory & as we were heading down the pit straight on the first lap still getting some heat into the
tyres he screamed WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO!! Now for my older bro to show such emotion was amazing. Nearly brought a tear to my eyes if i hadn't been
concentrating so much
Ya gotta luv it.
I WILL get out again!!
I have a little bit......need more......

Well put Rob.
To be fair to Graeme he did know his own limits and I've been a passenger with far scarier drivers (in my own car  )
That's not a challenge Graeme.
So come on Graeme, Track day next, to really put the frighteners on your passengers :-)

I took the lad that works for me out for a 10min spin on Friday. He's seen my build from start to finish and I think was taking everythging I
said about BEC performance with a pinch of salt. Not any more and I never realy hit the power band.
