It was my first time back in the saddle last night since the surgery and the first time at speed in over a year... The changed gear ratios are spot on and the car is just fuckin mental fast...

Now that's an engine where it makes sense to keep the revs up :smoke:

This is gonna be cool... :smoke:

You can see here how smoothly the power comes on with a 4th gear pull to 8300rpm. The engine can easily pull 10,000rpm.

Is use of a quality "scratch remover" product out of the question? I've used one on one of my cars with good results, though it didn't do as well on one of the other cars. Different "plexiglass" used by different manufacturers possibly? Dunno for sure.

I forgot how to sync my Gopro to the iPhone  so I'll have to try and figure it out again but in the mean time It was great in the twisties and seems to attract new friends when ever it's parked...
