Out for a spin

Post by mopar_mark »

Was a nice day on Saturday, so took the opportunity take the Cuda out for a spin.

Highlighted a few problems, but was nice to hit the road. Sorry about the editing software, but was all I had available to reduce the video size. Need to get my Mac repaired....

Fantastic, Mark; major milestone.

I bet it is nice being able to see where you are going now??? ;)

Mind you, I bet you have lost a bit of elbow room, and no space for the shopping when you visit Tesco's.....

Can't wait to see it at the track. Major pair on order, I imagine....

Yep gotta say congrats in getting it finished, not easy to drive a car like that where your throttle movement is restricted to around 0.100 thou!!!!. Look forward to seeing it go down the track at the Nats in the 7's.

Visibility is a lot better now, but got used to how it was before.
Harry had the shopping on his lap :D

Les,
That made me laugh, especially as I was driving in my old steel toe cap boots :D

Its easier to drive that when it was blown, as was not getting into boost, so fairly tame.


I will be pleased just to come to the Nats, will let the times pan out on their own ;)
