Remember my little trip out in the yellow monster, kind of sealed it that Steve would put a motor together for me. Has the clutch been changed yet?

I'd quite like to be taken out in a turbo mini. The fastest mini i've ever been in is mine. And that was never fast.

Turbo parts collector at the moment, almost ready.
