Wow....sounds like your having a blast on the track with these little monsters. I am sure you know then inside and out by now. Yes I feel like I am on borrowed time but just want to enjoy the car for the summer or maybe even a couple of years. If she blows up then she blows up. At that time she would get a nice used replacement and we will keep the ole gal rollin.

Redline upshift on a straight road, no problem.

Redline mid corner on a long sweeper, or over-rev downshift is the motor killer.

Enjoy your car!
