Just advise there is no difference to looking up and down at your phone to constantly looking back at the camera, i have seen many people talk and keep there eyes on the road and for that they get big respect, its good hearing you speak on what your thinking , but i would say safety first and keep your eyes forward while moving :)

Good job lads I remember those handbrakes half the time when you pull them on the cable snapped..... Another suggestion for bedding in brakes download a free app to your mobile phone which is just a simple G meter to record G Force and doesn’t matter what speed you’re doing Just Brake hard enough to pull two or three Gs each time and that way you keep it consistent and I find it works really well specially with Bendix pads..... Some brake pad manufacturers will actually provide that instruction on the leaflet that comes with the pads.....!!! I find it to be a lot more scientific because you’re now pulling the same Gs and never ever had a drama with squealing after that

It isn't a dodgy earth, it is how the camera sees the pulses of the digital cluster. To the human eye the cluster isn't flickering. Remember when you used to see old CRT computer monitors on TV? They'd be flickering.

Reminds me of an XF I saw down in Warnambool years ago. It had a 351 clevo, toploader and 9" diff combo and was in Streetmachine or Performance Streetcar magazine in 1988-ish ! Same color etc. Sounded amazing. Good work guys - maybe pull the Barra down the track an throw in a EFI clevo ?! 💪👍

Regarding the GoPro - don't get caught by VicRoads - they banned the use of Suction Mounts on the outsides of cars a few years back, after a couple that weren't put on right had unplanned meetings with pedestrians. If you come across a copper with an ego, the fine will cost more then a new GoPro!

Couldn't agree more! We have done nothing to change the performance of the engine from stock. We got it in and going so we can do the testing on the rear end but as you can tell the performance of the engine isn't great.. Hopefully we can get the xf going a lot better than it did here soon, the car has sat in the corner for some time as it not the greatest thing to drive in it's current state.
