My best lap at Laguna Seca was quicker than the GP bikes 1.16 compared to 1.20 for the bikes
Same at Sears Point (Infineon Raceway) way faster than the bikes and we ran the whole track
Superkart Rotax 250
Still take one out nown again but it takes a long time to recover from the beating the old body takes

I drive one regularly when I'm in Florida - it belongs to my father-in-law, but I prefer his 1939 Buick Century - straight eight, 350cu in, three on the tree!
That T-bird, as my dad would have said, will pass anything except a petrol station!
My T bird was way better on petrol than the Jag i owned
I would get 20 mpg compared to 14 for the Jag the T bird had a freewheel transmission that if you lifted off the accel it just coasted
I did take it for a MOT full of petrol & when i picked it up it was empty & when i say empty i ran out about 400 yds from the MOT place ,They either syphoned it or drove it all day & dummy me didnt look at the guage as i had just filled it that morning.

Funny how some of us take up a British cooking specialty - mine is roast beef with Yorkshire pud and yes, I am pretty well known for it among our friends and family!
Also, our local supermarkets actually carry a fair bit of Brit food - McVities Chocolate Digestives, PG Tips, Robinsons Barley Water, Marmite, Bisto, various jams and marmalades and several chocolate bars. Can't find Penguins though!
Wife does the Roast & yorkie pud
We can get treacle pud & spotted Dick the latter goes down pretty good lol
& of course custard
Always bring OXO back fron Uk & about 75# of Choc & Biscuits & not to forget Mushy peas ,Wich wifey did last time so i'm out
I didnt drink tea in the Uk alway prefered coffee
-
Bangers & mash my fave
Sugar sandwich or Crisps
Beans on toast.
I am quite famous for my Fish & chips & fritters get to make them quite often at the Dog shows
Along with pankakes with sugar & orange, Wife likes lemmon

I wasnt allowed to have stuff cluttering up my room.
As for cereal never ate it as my mum would sabotage it with a raw egg even horlicks or Ovaltene got the same treatment i learned how to puke real good

From what I gather, it's the filter that's easily damaged. Doesn't your's have the auto clean system??? I have the D5K and it auto cleans on power up and down, plus I can set it to a clean cycle.
No my camera is a older one but i think the shaker thing dosnt stop mould from humidity growing on the sensor or sticky tar from ciggies, Sooner or later you will be cleaning it or having someone do it
I think my prob was jet fuel in the air combined with dust blown up with the high wind
If you see a speck its prob dust if its a rounder darker area its oil/mould or some other sticky substance
Just do a test shot like i did & you will see if your cleaner system works.
My cousin said his pics were loosing color over time cleaned his sensor color back to normal,Most of his pic are taken in smokey nightclubs
Fancy a LITTLE camping ???
in Owt' Abaaht Nowt !
