3 rotor, vipers, pettit fixing my boost :D

I had a great day at Pettit yesterday. I got there and within 5mins Cam found out what was wrong with my car. While some of his mechanics were driving my car into their garage he hoped in his black 3 rotor with a gtc front, Fikse's, Gt Flares and said, "come on, i'll take you for a ride" . . . i grined like a idiot, hopped in, and got a taste of what i can't have

On the ride home i got passed by 3 vipers that were cruising at a pretty fast pace. I kept up with them which was cool. What a great day . . . Pettit Racing is awesome

Sounds like the small horseshoe shaped e clip on either the wastegate or the pre spool had come off.

The black 3 rotor was awesome but I don't really know what to tell you; i mean it was fast and there are times i thought he was going to way to fast to make it through the curve . . . .
