Any area's of opportunity?
CHRISTIANITY: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

How does that compare to the best in Oz?

Thats how I started. And once I had been down the 1/4 I was hooked. Q changes.

Quickest fix to a good time? SAFC and decent front end rubber (R888's on 15's). Oh, and maybe a bit of agressive driving and gear changing :-)

Carn! Highest NA powered FTO on a dyno you have to do it! Is your a manual or auto??? Power on a dyno means nothing until you get out there.

Thanks, had a lot of problems with clutch (3 in the season)before fitting a paddle type which was strong enough. Fitted just before the end of the season so hopefully will be off to a flier in April :D
