What involved here Dean? Sounds like more than just a lowering bracket?

According to my spies it's a case of positioning `the driver', AKA Dean, so he can get some leverage on the $*@&%# steering wheel to fight the torque steer..... :lol: :wink:

Hey everyone...

Just a quick update... BIGBAD is back at the MRC at Castlehill... getting a few things done...

Will have a cleaner tune now i have run in a few 1,000k's

Getting a new Ignition system put in... to replace the microtech one... We will see how well it goes & will update u all with the new low boost dyno results.

Cheers

Too much power? Too much power.... haha he would love it.... give him 20 goes in it... & you learn how to keep it straight...

No such thing as Too much power...

There is just something called... Not enough Traction.
