Yeah, turning 300,000 km while going close to 240 kph is pretty crazy!

And they were out there. But you can treat them like a dynamic slalom course. If you just do the speed limit (or 5 over) around them they won't panic too much.

So, in 'murican, that's 186,411 miles. That is a load of road. And still doing 240 kph. So how is it running for you? Have you noticed any loss in power, handling, etc? Any special maintenance tips? And yea, this is one time I might say

LESS please.

Performance is the same, handling, same. Maintenance. ..regular oil changes, I use redline every 7500kms. I also changed all the other oils to redline and change them every 100k. The rest is just regular stuff as required.

Checked the car for various clunks... Found that the drivers side endlink was loose at the sway bar. Hopefully that will cure some of the noise. Also saw that the Motordyne XYZ is holding up quite well. So much for their "shoddy" workmanship. My wife is going out tonight, so I may try to start fitting the spats.

Today I spent 6 lovely hours giving my lady a sweet hand massage with some very nice carnauba wax. after making her feel so pretty and loved I got her engine revving and took her for a nice long drive. I had a great time and so did she.

3rd one has been good, but the oe clutch and flywheel help by keeping the pressure down compared to the ACT clutch.
