Thats good to hear!
here is a quote from a Hot 4s mag that i have-
"...the awful truth is that the Gemini is slowly but surely nearing the end of what has been a very colourful life."
Bullshit!
A story like this is testament to that, so is this whole forum and everyone in it. Drago's Van, Michael Sherringhams FJ20 9 sec gem, that yellow inj 5L V8 gem sedan that killed everyone else in the burnout comp at springnats...
I reakon the Gemini's life is as colourful as it ever was, if not more.
Anyway, my 2c worth for tha day.

| burnouts is all that it is good for. A Gem with a fat heavy V8 in it loses all its sweet handling characteristics. |
