I'm sure it would be better than the 1.3 Fiesta with a thirst for oil I've tracked the last two times. Indicated 90 on the pit straight. 8)

By the way folks, I live precisely 2 minutes from the circuit, so any tools (up to and including engine crane) are close by.

Is No. 1 an attempt to use exhaust gases to blast the testing person into the next county?

MONEY! yes please. :D

I won't know the exact cost until the money gets extracted from our account. If you can all send me £25 per session, that should cover it. If it's any more, or less, we can sort it out on the day.

I used to use it all the time on the old engine
Have only used it a couple of times on this engine and it hit the boost cut instantly which is quite a violent cut
I have since upped the boost cut so i am going to use it at coombe and see how it goes...
