Ok guys we ran the Astina up at Willowbank on the weekend and it ran a 13.4 with wheelspin in 3rd gear.
I have solved the gearbox woes and have recently spent $3000 to fix the prob. Now i realy have to sell. I am asking $13,500! As a quick sale is needed. I now have near $50,000 in receiepts.

Hey Paul,
Would really like the details about fixing the gearbox issues. Wish I had a spare 13k but I dont so just the info of who did the work and what they did and any warranty that applies to the box would be good. Ta Mal
