ah well, it'll be a good 'before and after' if you decide to mod the new motor.

Not even two weeks to go now
What time does everyone finish work? If anyone wants to come out with me, Ill go out around 3pm-3:30pm, as I have the trailer, and have to change tyres yadda yadda yadda. As there is a few new people going, if anyone wants a rundown at the track, Im hapy to do it, as there is a few things to know (and some very suprising ones) that will help you immensley.

Yeah I'll be comming along for a run. Give the car a little bit of a shakeup.. I probably wont leave home till about 4 though, and Im not sure how long it'll take me to get to Willowbank. Depends how much traffic I can dodge, but it may take me a while. Either way I wont be there as early as you guys. I finnish work at 2:30, gotta drive back to Wynnum from Victoria Point, then head all the way down to Willowbank.. lots of fuel on that day :P

Meet up with Josh and I can meet you guys on the highway...
When I told him we were running his comment was "oh, we should make the trip up there" Will see what he says next week.. No more adjustments on my car can be done, it's runnin freaken saweeeet! I still cant believe the torque it has from any rpm! I really need to find some decent semi slicks.... Otherwise the run will be pointless!
