    Thats a nice looking ute, How does your z-grip go at the track? ever had any probs with high rpm clutch dumps. Ive got a z-grip myself but never been to a track and want to know if they hold up. What time does the old nugget run.
    What mods does the motor have and got any under bonnet pic's, Cheers steve.

    My motor is dead stock except for K & N air charger kit. My z grip is fine on the track the rest of the ute is different story needs shocks , springs and bushes. I have run a 14.090 with this combo
