First time out since March some time.

What a rush. :D

Hi capn, why so long between outings? Hopefully all was well 👍

Discovered the right back rim was a bit egg shaped back in December. Had a set for the back on order but even tho the website said in-stock, after order, they were suddenly back ordered. Gave them 8 weeks and cancelled, got my money back, and went in search of a set of rims in earnest that made me blink twice when I saw them. Kind of like a woman with a large Diamond on a ring so to speak.
So, since I have procured a set that should be here in a few days, slightly bent rim or not, it was time to take her out and enjoy that RUSH.

Really looking forward to putting the new shoes on her sometime next week.

Of coarse a pic will have to be added. :D

God saw me fit enough to drive it. It's my responsibility to drive it the way its meant to be drove. (All Roads Open.) Mods and fixes are mounting and I don't care, as it will be drove come hell or high water. :D

Steering wheel wobble at above 60mph cured after getting new wheels (New to me anyway) re-balanced.

someone ran me off the road in a C63 AMG so forced me up a high kerb, cracked bumper, snapped the bumper bracket and scuffed a wheel , so just had it repainted & plastic welded :(

he came hurtling up behind me in a 30 at a serious rate of knotts, defo minding my own buisness. I saw him lock up and brake heavily, his car was all over the place so my instinct reaction was to just bump up the kerb next to me to avoid a smash. Although in hindsight i defo should have let him go into the back of me, i had my 13 week old puppy in the car though, so thats probably what my conscience was telling me :(
