i had a good day 2day.
LOL

i was 60kph (bout 40mph) and a guy i used to know, his car came up me bum quick and then pulled up next to me goin 60 (40mph).
It was a different driver, he gave me "lets race look" and i said "go" with my hand,
i chucked it back into 3rd and i pulled a slight bit until i got my revs to about 4500rpm and then i pulled a car and a half on him.
i had to turn so i put me brakes on and he went flyin past me, like doin 160ish

i was happy!
Its a damn nice Cortina too! Purple, 4.1L 6cyl. it has been worked as well as far as i know.- extractors, cam, exhaust, carby.
