Hi guys just thought l would let you know ORSMXR is coming out of retirement for one last attempt of that elusive 12 sec 1/4 mile.

Keep a look out in the next couple of weeks out at Calder.

The Panther is coming out to play some more.....

Dude you better come and see me and we will put standard XR8 springs back in it.

That way it will get the suspension travel it needs and you "shouldn't" have to worry about those C.V.'s.

Cheers Craig

Well Doc where we left off as nothing has been changed on the car since we stopped racing apart from having no under drives.

But the car still feels strong.

Well guys will have to go out and break into the 12's N/A before it gets a bolt on in a couple of weeks. lf all goes well.
