This week's #GT7 Challenges gave me a change run a few retro classics.
The #Lancer is underpowered, but very light, so I added Nitrous for the straights at Monza.
The #Sierra is just about quick enough at Bathurst, and great over the Mountain section.
The #M3 has an engine swap (from the #Suzuki VGT)
And the #Abarth has been bored out to 624cc, hence the plate!

omg I AM SOOOOO EXCITED!!!

I just got an email from my import agent, my replacement #mistubishi #minicabMiEV has been flashed and the power box is now WORKING!!!

So he can book it for transport from #Japan to #Australia now. I don't think it will get here before Xmas, but maybe it will? This might impact my holiday plans... but probably not a lot, and I might even be able to get someone to drive it out to EDM for the #batteryupgrade if I'm away but honestly it would make me sad not to do that myself, and I want to at least try out the power box before the upgrade which might actually make it stop working (or something else weirdly catastrophic - I like to live dangerously?)

As I know NO ONE in the EV community in Australia who has done this yet (even though the 2022 "leisure" campervan version ships with one), I am really super, SUPER excited.

.. maybe I need to have an account on #Japan Mastodon and see if there are other #minicabMiEV owners here in the Fediverse.
