Weather was good so Mike and I went out for a blast and a pint today ;) ( Rich, where were ya son :? )

Very nice it was to, that Runner is real nasty now with the 500 stroker installed, sounded awesome :thumbright:

We had a little race up the duel carriage way and at around 60mph Mike lost traction ( changing gear ) and went a bit sideways right in front of me :pale: ......them Coopers just can't handle that power :help: :flush:

Great to get out for a thrash around, clocked up 35 miles and ate a new Impretsa for lunch along me way :lol:



A couple of pic's..........

Nice to meet up Mal, lost count of the times the car's been sideways since fitting that motor but good fun. Made a nice change from being out on me own and the Torino looked mean in the mirror.

I had an 8-track in my old aussie Charger. I have fond memories of racing a bloke in a soft top '68 baccaruda down the A3 past Kingston, listening to the Carpenters! 'Why do birds suddenly appear...' at 130 mph in the outside lane of the very narrow 3 lane carriageway, was bizzarre... :lol:

Steve, I think there's been enough talk about carbs lately so I'm saying nothing.
