What a night!

[vtaggart]

Just back from visiting a friend who was preparing ESSO BLUE LVX942J for the Stoneleigh Retro Rally, he invited me to join him will he tested it up the road (with Roy's permission)
What an experience flat out up a dark country road at 9000 rpm, how cool was that?

Thanks Billy (and Roy for instructing it to be taken to 9k)

Photos of the car to follow.

Cheers Vince
