How'd the Ute go on the Ring, mate, hang on in the corners well enough?

We asked him if the engine had actually been called “Seagull” and how that came about. “Actually it was just call “Gull”, because I named it that. Because we knew it was going to poo on everything”. |

I hope you tell everyone it's a "UTE" and not a "Utility Vehicle" or "Pick up truck".
You can put the Porsche drivers ego in the back !

Must be pretty loud not to be able to have a lap! Go to a local muffler joint and put on a temporary muffler!

The funny thing is i have only seen one porsche this whole week.
Itsw good fune tho sitting driving along sections of autobahn at 225kmh. Polyal i live over in north of Scotland and have the ute there. Next step may be to stick a cat in and see how it goes on the noise level. The exhaust im runing is a 3" straight from the turbo to the back where there is a small backbox hidden up over the axle. |
