Road Trip!: Melbourne

During the cruise I opened the evo up in first gear and had it bounce off the rev limiter a couple of times before shifting up... turns out to be a known issue.. so heading down to see Dan and have it sorted.

Suggestions of some good roads to drive?
Scenic as well as twisties welcome :)

How often is it hitting the rev limiter?

Why wouldnt you take it to your local Mitsubishi dealer or you where just planning to come down to Melb anyway?

Im down for a drive, ill bring the promo car out.

Hits the rev limiter twice after shifting...
Im not sure the exact issue, but I did see someting about it on the Evo Oz forums and Dan has the fix.

I could have express posted my ECU to him, but I prefer the drive :)
Love driving, love that car! ;)
