Title: the mighty m42 stroker with itbs

the car is all new and i knew i would have a few teething problems as it was the car's first real test, unfortunately the hydraulic clutch cylinder couldn't push far enough when everything got hot meaning the clutch was useless, fortunately i can change gear without the clutch but i found out that using the handbrake wasn't a good idea.
