@NafemanNathan They are Indigolemon's old misting jets. While they are very good they are quite big :D

I havent done a regular track day in a while and I was apprehensive that I might turn up and not be much faster than the road cars, thankfully that wasn't the case.

The most important thing about those washer jets is... They're not flapping around ;-)

Mate your car looks to be handling amazingly well, I expect the guy in the skyline realised you knew the track better than him and decided he didn't want to stay in front as he'd make a mistake, it's a lot easier to chase than lead

Cheers Benny. Yeah I think the sound is much nicer with my 3" exhaust 8-)

Wurly, I'll have a chat with Steve. TBH the absolute earliest we'll could get around to sorting something out is two weeks away as the next rounds of SLS is a week on Saturday.
