Re: Dono's 67 GTA s-code Fastback

Post by donoauto »

Been busy lately. Have lots of pics of the Yamba & Armidale rodruns to put up. For now, here's a bit of video footage from Armidale of my Stang & my mates 632ci MonteCarlo at the "skidpan" (dedicated Fire & Emergency services training ground). In the video where I'm the passenger filming inside my mates car, we started with brand new Yokohama's & 90 seconds later they were completely bald - a quick way to kill $500.
I went up to Armidale with bugger all rear tyres left & had to make it 3 1/2 hours back home to Yamba so I was - all things considered - fairly sedate.









edit: can someone help me fix these links so the little video box comes up? I just copied the address in the main address bar & then pasted them into the "youtube" icon thingy when composing a message. Always used to work...........

edit 2 : thanks Jeff.

Mark, I would get your steering box and control value checked in the steering. The car seems to be pulling a little to the left, then right, then right around left, then a bit more left, then a bigggg power slide to the right.

And your mate should have his accelerator linkage checked for kinks. Tt seems to be stuck to the floor!

Maybe you guys should look at shares in a tyre company.
