What finish is that if you dont mind me asking? Has a real nice finish to it, bit of a sparkle look

they call it fry over balck or course dark sparkle, they spay with black and the put metalic flec in the laquer job done really shines in the sun pics dont really show it off

I got a few of you on the strip. post em later. 14.04 is really good considering a 400bhp leon best time was 13.7.

that would be good thanks mate yeah saw buch running his 400bhp monster sounded mental just to much power for the front wheels tho, some really nice looking seats there and had a really good day

Thats really good mate, nice vids. They they get any good pics of the car on the strip? Found they are usually really good. Your car looks mint!

I think this time round I will play a bit with the tyre pressure. Felt the tyres just slipping last time, mind you it was totally standard back then
