I was on my way to Heathcote friday lunch time (for the LS1 nats) and wasn't feeling the best.
Then it happend. It has to be the worst thing I could ever imagin and totally F#@*ed up to boot. Yup I think someone may have guessed it. I chucked all over the bloody place at 100 kay's. I managed to pull over without crashing but not befor I let a second lot go all over the place. I managed to get the door open for the 3rd 4th and 5th round. I was absolutly devistaded to say the least. I couldn't bloody belive it. i was ready to pack up and go home right there and then. I gave it the best clean i could on the side of the road, Made it to the track with out a re-occurance. Spent 2 hours cleaning the ute out to no avail. I could not get rid of the smell. I got up sat morning and started stripping the dash, door trims ect and cleaning them with pine o clean and a toothbrush. 3 hours later I got rid of it all. I guess it payed off in some strage way ( I would say sick way but hey lets not go there) I did run a new P.B of a 13.21 and discovered that the isntrement cluster on the BA comes apart in many many pieces and it is very easy to mark or paint a few red lines on you tacho...... Apart from all that it was a great weekend and this is me getting home now. It was a shame that there wernt more ford's there. No wonder I was sick, having to hang around with holden drivers for the weekend... Cheers....Kev

well done Kev, 13.21 shaves a little more off your best time, you must be sick of running 13.2's...
