sport/hobby/lifestyle that I would like to hear from the OLD fellas on
most subjects...
Is it 'normal' (!?) to seriously throw the timing out by just giving the
poor old 'B a damn good thrashing. Not lots of redline stuff, just some
flat out laps 'round a racetrack (I liked playing boy-racer) and some
hairy full-lockup braking/maneuvering from 50/55mph etc.
Yes, it was driver training / defensive driving.
She was fine on the day... but both both she and I pulled up pretty sore
the following day. Timing way out and blowing smoke (yes, both of us).
Quick tune-up did the job but I gotta check a few loose spokes!.
