Well, The Rs is roadworthy, and ready for rego tomorrow.
I will be visiting all the people who helped with my rebuild this time around very soon.
I did enter my first Hillclimb at Noosa last year.
Apart from the flywheel parting from the crank on my first run, I was very lucky when the bottom pulley came loose, moving the timing belt forward, almost off the cam pulley.
I ran an easy 72 sec on my last run, just edged a turbo mini for last place in the group.
I only need 11 seconds of talent to catch Danny M!
Happy days.

Congratulations Mark. If your in the mt.glorious, dayboro,  mt mee area please stay on your side of the road. I was driving up the campbells pocket rd the other day and nearly got run over by a milk tanker coming down, as you know its only a one lane goat track and its a good thing the corty is long and narrow.

Lucky it wasn't in the Capri. Will keep that in mind.
I do wedding cake deliveries up into the highland twisties, it has been fun going real slow with motorsport stickers on the back, watching bike guys fly past saying wtf.
I can't wait to get out and use it. very overdue.

It was great to do 80km today, pity the Felpro head gasket failed.
I guess the damage was done when the Pipercross air filter backing plate was on backwards. Blocking the small 10mm holes above the ram tubes.
Live and learn.
Head is already back on with a new Felpro headgasket.
Got a V8 Capri to race out Lakeside on Sunday.
All Aussie car day. It would be great to have a few more four door Rs2o0o cars turn up.
