I think that it is now time for you to do a Mart and Mary rebuild on the race car. It might not return any money, it will cost, but you will have a great level of satisfaction having a straight and gleaming Dolly to use for a bit of fun.

My thoughts exactly Mark. I was going to reshell it this year but some bodies put temptation in my way for another resto. :lol:

My lap times for five consecutive laps with the Falcons on the fronts were:-

1:32
1:30
1:30
1:29
1:30

That's similar times to what I put in with the Yokos all round.

Hi Mart, I really began to miss your video's, so thanks a lot for putting your latest up on the forum. Pity about the damage, but I guess that's racing. It's a brilliant picture though 8)

Keep your trackdays coming :D

My first prang on track since I started 6-7 years ago.... ....I can't open the back door now.
Wrong place at the wrong time. It's not like you did anything wrong (unlike some I could mention :oops: I struggle to open Tara's OSR door, too !); though there were a couple of hints he was going to overdo it... but, that's easier to spot from the comfort of my 'puter chair, and not being distracted by having to drive a car behind him.

Great videos. Really p'd off I missed it, now. :(
