When your stuck in 1st, you need to be hard on the limiter to make up for it :yahoo:

Well done on the skid Matt, pitty you couldn't hit gears, but you used that pad nicely. I didn't know who it was till the end
of the skid, i thought some yobbo was cutting sick early!!! haha

What for? That's what the limiter is for :)

I didn't sit on the limiter in my other skids. The alternator spat and I had no battery. I said over the P.A. if anyone can donate a battery I will try and spit the box on the ground.... so I did. Box is shagged. It did get 2nd gear after a bit......

Be good when the new one gets here. Hopefully ready for the next meet.

Oh ok.... obviously I didn't hear that. It did pull gears, but it does it when it wants to. I enjoyed it that's all that matters :)

Can't be much louder! Has about 6" of exhaust past the pipes.

Working on the new box.

Gotta love tax time!!!!

Picked up my new B&M Pro Ratchet shifter today. Thanks Pete from Cougar Motors for the top service! Ordered yesterday. Had it today.

Old box is in at Brinks Performance now getting beefed up.... can't wait to get it back and see how it loves top cog.

Thinking about putting a longer exhaust on it to. Chopped 10" or so after the extractors at the moment. Think longer may sound better....... x-pipe and dump near the wheels.

Just got and fitted new water temp gauge. Had nothing before so didn't know how hot it was getting.

The box is at Brinks getting built so just waiting on that now. When that gets here fit it up and throw the pro-ratchet in and go for a test.

Oh, also getting a new converter. Probably around 2,500RPM or there abouts.
