I don't know why my video app resized the footage out of proportion, but you can see the car is already at 1 bar of boost at 3k RPMS. It's quite a crazy feeling.
This is in 6th gear at 100km/h and only pressing the pedal down 65%.

Mike, the pics are awesome mate... just love em! Btw, I think that the nicest colour combo. Aggressive and yet classy. You do know I'm always waiting for new pics or posts from you. It's always a sign of good things.

So is this just to wet our appetites for the 4th gear 100% throttle video?

I dont think you will be able to hold the camera with one hand for that video.

Cant wait to see the pics of this car after its been polished up.

Thanks Haku! Much appreciated and I'm glad you enjoy them so much.

I'm just being precautious as I get to know the car

Neither do I, I'll bring out the camera mount for that.

Thanks Jason! The D3s was just too bulky for me to carry around when I travel. The D700 is the best of both worlds

Thanks, the running in is going well. Almost done with my first tank of fuel
It's definitely way up there. I don't have a favourite in the house. I enjoy each and every one of them due to their unique qualities.

That's exactly why I bought the D700. The D3 is just too bulky. I have the 28-300 which works perfectly for traveling.
