But on a serious note: that looks awesome! :D

wow. that looks like a heck of a lot of fun. I love some of those flying buggy shots. Also does the magical color changing paint act as a barometer of how much fun you're having :lol:

Hey, the old shock oil doesn't look too bad for 2 years of abuse, sure, it's a little dark, but it's clear, not cloudy and no real debris in there either, gotta be good, right? :D

Image

I mean, even the seals and shims look spotless, next to no wear on them at all :)

Image

And the new oil is just the same colo.....oh, wait, maybe the old oil was a little tired then....

Re: My daily and the weekend toy - warning, get coffee. And

Well, the site was better suited to swimming today - pressing the throttle pedal down in any gear at all just meant the mud flew higher - the car didn't go any faster :D

Unfortunately, we had trouble with the alternator on the second run, which lost us 10 minutes whilst we bodged it back together with side cutters and tie-wraps. :D

However, the next few laps we barely made it around - literally creeping along sideways on full lock at 1mph through a few sections they were so slippery, and then just to top it off, on the very last lap, either the gearbox or the clutch plate let go with a bang whilst launching off the start line :(

Bah!
