First 3 runs he was pulling mid 13s then the electrics in the car died haha. Hes never run it with the headlights on at such high rpm and the alternator just overloaded a 30amp fuse. Ran his next few runs with the brake lights and 1 headlight disconnected. Swapping it with a fusible link. Oh he was also up at the Ruakaka street event last weekend which was pretty choice. Had the 5th quickest time at 1:32 where as the dodsons r35 had the best at 1:28. Pretty good effort for the testing stage. |

I've seen that white Gemini Coupe that was advertised on here for sale a few times. Last night the girl who owns it rolled into the BP while I was filling up. Had a small chat and directed her here, hopefully she checks it out!
