I'm in the same boat Jeff. It's a real pain in the bum watching everyone else improving their times too! Unlike most others here I'm simply unable to finance CV/diff/clutch if I break them (and unfair to claim warranty), I'm seriously considering selling the shack and living in a communial tent and living off the land to feed my addiction...lol

The ute is fine and going stong. How ever I still cant make it out on friday. I have to go to some kind of information class thing for incoming twins...
The things we have to do. Talk about a contridiction to the P.F.M story. Spend the money ont he car the outcome is more predictable. Thats gone out the window. Now its try to keep the bloody car and raise a family.
Dont get me wrong it will be a great thing just a big change of life.....

Cheers all..........Kev
