Winter Suzuka

Although you could never tell it’s December by the looks of it. I wanted to shake down the car and make sure it didn’t break..but in the end it did. A dead clutch slave ended by day early, but not before I had some good fun.

I was expecting another lonely day out, but there turned out to be a good number of cars for the morning session.

I was only able to get a few runs in, but I was able to grab some video for your viewing pleasure:

So going home wasn’t possible with the clutch pedal on the floor, but thankfully by buddy also ended up coming and I was able to use his flatbed to get the thing home. Quick fix on the car and I’ll be back into the mountains.

Ha! Reminds me of when I got my first 240. The slave went out but I thought it was the clutch, so I blew money having a shady tranny shop replace the near new stock clutch with a POS eBay clutch. Oh well, live and learn.

Randomly found your blog a few months ago and I read it every few weeks or so; just wanted to say that your videos are insane and it makes me want to get on the bandwagon and get a 240, haha.
