So now with the car been registered and legal on the road though id go celebrate so took the car to the rock to play abit. Its alot harder than it looks but heres a vid of my best attempt. i only had 5 runs at it then i burst a water line and car overheated lucky i saw it happening and was able to get off the track before anything got damaged
So car made it to drag wars unfortunately the exhaust leak seemed to be getting worse so the car was only able to achieve 0.8bar boost but I still made do with what I had. Every run down the strip I was reducing my time nicely till they pulled me off the line for a oil leak, which I was pissed off about but quickly changed that attitude when I inspected this apparent oil leak, turns out the engine mount had broken and punchers a hole into my oil filter I had virtually no oil in my car and would have completely buggered up everything if they had let me run so unfortunately the car had to be brought home on a tailor but motor seemed fine will have to replace the filter and oil just to double check but now that its standing again I've decided to do a few upgrades and fix small issues that were long over due.
"I'd rather lose by a mile because I built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me"
