Yeah I know mate it's fixed now.

Last cooler was ok to late 400's and then we were seeing inlet temps really ramp up. Swapped to PW3 and we were only seeing 2 - 5 degrees from bottom to top of run at 20+ psi boost levels.

Well what a week last week was.



Left for the Modball rally with 124 other high powered cars which included the likes of 5 Lambo's, 2 Fazzars, TVR's r35's Bentley's a Rolls Royce Phantom (yes you heard right) and even a Lexus LFA.



1st day was a dash from Sydney CBD over the Bridge to Coffs Harbour where we stayed at the Opel Cove resort. Next day we were off to Norwell race track and skid pan for the day this was a surprise and we were only told about this at the drivers briefing on the Friday arvo in Sydney.



Then off to Brissy for the night and massive party at the Normanby Hotel.



Monday we had a fair well lunch at the Normanby and then we made our way to Nimbin.



After stopping in Nimbin we jetted down to Yamba were we stayed the night at the Pacific Hotel.



Then Tuesday morning we headed down to Central Coast and stayed there.



Wednesday we were back in Sydney.



Then Sat just gone we had powerplay and the car again copped a hidding all day and loved every min of it.



First 3 morning sessions I just baked tyres and then after lunch I swapped over to my MT's for and went hunting for anything that would race me.



Must say I did not get chopped at all and I I pretty much chopped everything else that tried.



I was door to door with a 450 awkw Evo and that was about as close any anyone got.



I know there were a couple of quicker cars there (like an 8 sec evo) but I simply did not get a chance to give him or the other quicker cars a run.



So 2500+kms over 10 days and the the old girl is going strong so win win really.



Oh and that's the 1st time I've been to a Powercruise Event and not left on a tow truck!
