Cool Detoxx wasting some petrol
Made some test hits from a dig for the first time since breaking an axle at the track. Would have done it sooner but it had been way too hot down here and its finally starting to cool a little. Shifting is getting better but the launch needs work still. Don't wanna go too crazy on the stock drivetrain just yet. All in all it was fun and i'm gonna try and make it to the track soon.
