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.

ACE 90 (80W90),
or if your budget allows synthetic, then the ACE 75 full synthetic.
Here is an interesting discussion about this topic .

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!
