practise run

[marcus1875]

Morning all. The suns out so i am going to take my non-stalling wedge on a 200mile run around the borders. It will be the first decent run its been on for several years and the first i have managed in it due to the stalling issues. If it manages ok i will definately be out for the rusty nail. Wish me luck.

Well guys, the car made it fine. The only trouble i had was a numb bum from the plastic bucket seats. Rusty nailers, here i come!!

The vid was taken by my mates phone from his windscreen! The vid was shot on the tranent to gifford road in east lothian, we went on uowards duns. A nice wee rd if you can avoid the cyclists and sheep!
The taz does sound good now, nice and loud. I'll need to take a vid of it revving up!

Strap some NOS..I mean a bottle of rusty to your engine...Its the 50/50 golden rocket fuel...

Hey Marcus, those roads look very familiar to me. That was one of my fav's when I lived in Musselburgh. I live over Soutra hill now in the Borders but that's still close.

I see you've got a FHC too, it's hard to tell but is it a series 2? You neeed to get some photo's up. There arn't enough of us fixed headers around these parts!

Hi Tasmin200. Yes it is an S2 with a roof! We are lucky in that every road round here can be brilliant. Except for the A68 and the gatso. I dont go down the 68 as i dont have a speedo cable yet.
I have posted some pics before but they always come out really small. I'll be going on the rusty from the cuik if you are going as well.
