Trevor
I have crawled all over and under that car and i refer u to my earlier
post.. I bet those guys in your club were spreading crap cos they got hosed
off by a Datto..
NO coil overs!!! NO 1800!!!
just a LSD
The fact remains and will always remain that he kicked their asses with a 30
year old almost standard car and they couldn't handle it..
"Apparently if he ran in limited modification class he would have won that
class and not been disqualified" ...
He also would have won outright!!!!
It really shits me to hear lies and bullshit which is really just those guys
making excuses for being well and truly out driven by a very significantly
better driver..
Power to the Datto!!!!!
cheers
Mick
