Tino insisted I drive it, although I was nervous some dick would crash into me or I'd blow something up. Even conserving the revs it's bloody rapid. It makes a NOISE from the twin 'gates like nothing else. People turn to look at where the noise was, because you've already left the scene!

I realise the HP number is important for the magazine article (they all lie anyway) but I reckon at 4,5 or 6 hundred horsepower it'll be just as fun to drive. Get some miles on the thing, get some enjoyment from driving it before winter sets in.
hahaha dougie u forgot to write makeshift bathroom spec

Speaking of stalling ask Sean how many times he stalled it to get it on the dyno..

I agree peak numbers arent important, and know that pump fuel is shit really need to put it on race fuel to see how efficient the setup really is.

It will be making a driving appearance at rexpo all going to plan...

And yes the noise of the gates is unbelievable and unbeliebly loud... or maybe im just getting old..
