took the cm out to my car club meet tonight and wouldnt you know it but my 27 year old throttle cable decided to snap tonight.

after a couple of minutes checking the break i decided to crank the idle adjustment up to about 5500 rpm and use the gearbox to control speed so i could limp her home. worked surprisingly well though i may have wiped out the brake pads in a couple of spots. even managed to avoid drawing the attention of johnny law. interesting night
