ummm, that's not gonna happen though is it, really? goin hard and fast means something always goes wrong, it's just a matter of how major it is. all part of the fun I reckon

I went offroad with some guys yesterday. Just before we left I said, "right, time to go break something". one of em looked at me like was crazy, but it's the truth. you always damage something, you just hopes its the little things you damage not the $$$$$$$ things.
😊im hearing what your saying, but with the amount of bad luck ive had maybe things might start to turn around or heres hoping anyway..

This is my Volkswagen, there are many like it, but this one is mine. Without me my Volkswagen is useless, without my Volkswagen, I am useless.

66 Deluxe Beetle 2270 type 4
10 Subaru WRX Impreza
ACE 90 (80W90),
or if your budget allows synthetic, then the ACE 75 full synthetic.
Here is an interesting discussion about this topic .

Man she looked good today after giving it a buff late last night. Looked a treat and got plenty of attention for a car with paint that is 17 years old!!

Nice work Troy.
Now that it has a trophy time to pull some weight out of it and get ready for the track.
Dangerous throttle response was checked especially getting onto the freeway. Nice of Troy to wait for me too LOL.
Stanley the plan is to run it with full weight as the car sits right now and see what numbers it will achieve. Then start the weight removal.
Let's say that it looks like the Alder's have another long term project commencing in the next couple of months if all goes to plan....

I doubt she is a blond.
Cuff and collars probably dont match.
Perhaps the collars have been removed...all good!
