mmmm naughty but nice!
Got the grasser fired up again today and swapped the gear cluster over to the short track one for next weekends fun.
Brakes were a bit tired and wanted a clean up and unstick for the fronts..........so nothing for it but a quick run!!
No fields handy so up the road it was
forgot how bloody wild the damn thing was after sierra 4x4 ing for months now!!!
Super-soft tyres and dry road and locked diff and still it spins both tyres up and goes sideways on gearchanges!!!
All the brake bias is on the back to so emergency stops tend to be sideways too!!
Had a nice chat with the collected neighbours afterwards (they were fine just nosey!)

Not quite as exciting as your thrash then, but the neighbours finally got to see my "yellow peril" for the first time this weekend as I
turned it round on the front, and fitted the rear wings :

Ah cool! I really must get over and have a peep at your build sometime, it seems to be progressing much quicker than mine!!
Funnily enough was on the phone to one of your neighbours (Richard, Ultima chap) a bit earlier on this evening!

Not really, it's nearlly 2 years! And I think you've got more concurrent projects than me, I get lazier as I get older.
You're welcome for a brew anytime.
