what a beast!

Thanks Alex..

In other news after the latest track day which was EXE Track day i ended up bettering my previous PB with better driving to a 1:47.9050
The car still has plenty in it, just a matter of improving my driving.

In awesome news my OEM Clutch after 154,***km has decided to start slipping so that warrants me me getting a new Clutch, Flywheel & i said to hell with it, ill be doing my final drive whilst at it (5.1)
Also doing my bearings, seals & will be putting a TSX 6th gear into the box. Will be making sure all synchro's are still in good shape though whilst though box is out.

With the improved clutch, flywheel & final drive i suspect to feel a massive improvement in the performance of the car.

Also needing a new set of front tyres =D
Going to be a expensive new year!

Had a great day and every went quite smoothly
Improved my personal best from a 1.47.9050 to a 1.45.85, overall a 2 second improvement which has made me quite happy.
