Have had a ball so far,except the going deaf and i'm dreading adding up the fuel receipts!Gonna check the valves in the morning,and a bit of carb
adjust and remove the roof rack and i think were all good for racing tomorrow.I am going to try and dissapoint my nephew isaac to quote as the
message i got from him "hopefully you dont blow your car up or do a wheelie and go on your roof and crash"Gotta love shit the kids say.

The hearing isn't so bad it's the all over body hum/buzz that took 2 days to settle down.but my back is the main problem probally
a combination of my O.G 66 standad seat and sleeping on the ground/hotel de penrose trailer that did me in!
