Less sideways more action from NZ

[MarlboroMan]

Hi guys i picked up bbbrads mk1.5 a few months back.
just re-found the forums and noticed one of my vids allready here :) and also the lack of other similar vids, i've decided to rectify this and have uploaded a couple more vids of my ride.

more of the trackday in which the sideways action was recorded.
and yes it looks like the dash is gonna fall off every time i brake but thats exagurated by the fact its only held there by two screws at the top. The brakes are none the less defenitally buggered.

As the title suggests a leisurely drive up a senic rout.

Marlboroman, KEEP THEM COMING! Really great stuff and you lifted my spirit even higher.:welcome: :thumbsup:

Want to give us some specs on it? I see you put the steering wheel on the wrong side like lots of UKers do. Did you guys not read the instructions right:mrgreen: :mrgreen:

[jungle-jim]

actually, we have it the correct way.

its the rest of you thats wrong!!

it was made right hand drive because of ye olde times when people fought on horseback with lances and swords.

thats why we drive on the right side. ( other countries followed suit when we invaded :D )

however the french wanted to rebel against the british at some point and decided to drive on the left side and so they made everywhere else in europe follow

when america was first collonised, it was prodominantly dutch/spanish/french that went over and continued it over there.

so now you know!!! :D

the vids are very cool btw ;)

Nice vid's, noisy little bugger aint it,

Question, what's the gizmo above the central vent? looks to be linked to the throttle.

[MarlboroMan]

air/fuel mix gauge, unfortunately not wide band.

[adamh]

thats a beauty mate... does this one have the large intake sticking out of the engine lid.. drives really well!
