| Apparently on the way up I had glowing bits of stuff coming out of the exhaust, which I'm guessing is soot on the inside burning off as it gets abnormally hot.
Would have been super cool if it had done it on the rollers too. | |

| It's not abuse i was fearing for my paintwork lol, it's not everyday you see a diesel cav shooting glowing bits of soot or exhaust pipe over the motorway, i must admit that it was the highlight of the journey, made the cav seem even more awesome.
