I was on the race track. I wished I could have mounted the camera so you could see the track and the speedo. I just didn't have anyway to mount it. I hit 179mph but if I would have keep my foot in it a little longer I'm sure I would have hit 180mph. I just didn't like passing the slower cars at that speed. It made me nervous. But once I got around them it was on. Peddle to the metal. But just 5 monthes ago my throwout bearing broke which means "clutch replacment. I did it myself without a fancy lift which would have been nice. Maybe I'll post pics of the job on the technical section if they allow more than six pics. But as you can see she runs great.
