2007 FPV Force 8


5.4L, Metallic Green, Reg: DNU329

Driven: September 2007
Place: Meremere, Auckland & Red Beach, New Zealand
Context: Press Car

Memory byte:
Two main ones persist :-)

1. Getting the big hairy V8 out of a junction sideways, courtesy of wet roads and on account of me turning the traction control off!!

2. Full bore start against Darren in the HSV GTS on the Meremere drag strip, hitting a patch of water on the right hand side, still under full acceleration and getting a strange drifting sensation towards the barrier. Should have gotta Purple Heart for that!
