Been blasting round in this. Having fun.
Temps been ok, rise to 90ish when you cane it then drop as the rad cools things... But I found a little water leak yesterday. Fixed it this afternoon and lost most of the coolant(water) in process. So refilled and blead it.... Go for a 1.5hr blast and find the temps are under even better control! Winning! Wishes for more power...

There is a little more to fiddle with, I hope to make action day maybe on track and a trip to lobbland just to see a good dyno setup and result from all my hard work and others too....
But Action Day on the 12th will be this 306 last show. A new chapter will be written. A new project to be started. Wishes for more power...

Piggy why are you calling it a day after you have done the show?

It would just fit with major mods to the body, like a full boot lid conversion, (so the whole back opened) it would have been epic.... Not always Grumpy!!
