Nice car, and looks lovely in black. If I had shopped around more, I would have got one in that colour. Welcome to the site.

[TCB 57]

Thank you for the welcome . :grin:

Black is a grouse colour ( when clean ) ....but a job and a half, to keep that way !!!

This pic shows how much wall flex you can get from a M/T slick. Would have been running about 8 maybe 9 lbs for this run. ( interesting that around 18 lb got me the better times tho ! )
Since I have gone with a bigger brake package, i can no longer fit the 15" rim, with slicks and front runners.

Its a bit of a story,...but in a nut shell,....the black one was bought for my wife to drive ( I'm more into bikes ) but once i had done some engine upgrades, she wasn't so happy with it as a day to day driver !!!

Soooooo, this particular day, down at the Melbourne motor show, we spot the CV8-R ( the red one ) she likes...we buy...everyone happy !
