Wink Chuffed to bit's

After waking up this morn from my night shift. Thought i would take the car for a run{needed to bed in new pads from Performance friction} bloody battery was flat. So while waiting for it to charge i fitted new plugs & changed the oil & filter. Off i went on one of my fav roads. On the way back now really pushing the car i was gob smacked at the difference the bloody pads had made. I thought Brembos were good these new pads are in a different league. I can brake so much later & mix that with the other mods ive done handling wise & now it all come's together. So as title say's Chuffed to bits. Ive had a couple of Evo's in the past and yes they may corner a little easy'r than a Scoob believe me you dont get the same feedback. You have to work a Scoob and that for me is the difference,the Evo you expect it to go around the corner. The Scoob makes you smile when your doing it

Car's in the bodyshop all week, for a seven year make-over....

Back at the end of the week, then the JGM himself is about to do his laptop trickery.
