Sorry to hear you killed the 'bullet proof' gearbox, perhaps not Monster proof lol. You coming to Snett to try it out next Wednesday then, my 2015 Dealer Day and got it even cheaper this year :)

Gutted to hear about the gearbox. Was wondering if you were getting out on track this year, need to get some pics and video footage up to help motivate the rest of us. Good update and report though.

One of the lads I met on GTROC has a very fast R32 and really knows how to peddle it too so it's been fun getting out on track, not only for the obvious but also as it gives me access to vids of my car for the first time when I'm actually on it. This one is Snett the day I broke the unbreakable OSG gearbox despite only running 1.2 bar which is 530 bhp ish and well within standard box tolerance...

That was cool, for a second there I thought I was in some US TV Cop drama chasing a bank robber!!

Was it quite predictable (the tail kicking out) and easy to correct or was it a bit hairy and ready to bite you on the ass with little warning? Either way I liked it, shame about the box letting go though obviously.
