Seeing the more recent pictures I was thinking he'd maybe taken mine and other's pointers about aero into account finally but no seem it was just because he realised they were a hindrance for the 1/4 mile.

Can't remember if he has the K series engine in there but if he is running 11s on it that engine is gonna be warped to **** in no time.

EDIT:

I really don't get it reading some of the comments he has a very good working knowledge of those engines and the overall problem but is still running headlessly towards the inevitable for instance:

First was the pistons themselves, I was using forged NA pistons with the middles machined out to drop compression, this left us with fairly thin ringlands meaning they are reaching the limit of what they can take as they are dealing with heat/pressures and rpm that is not normally seen on k series.

@Gibbo what is your daily?

Do you only take car X to certain places (work, supermarket, airport etc) or is it whichever you feel like that day?

All three are insured, taxed and MOT, so whichever I feel I want to use but the SVR was typically use 4 times a week, BMW once a week and the Clio is used around once or twice a month.
The Ferrari shall become new daily.

It's bizzare, I see him posting in a few places and he comes across as somewhat intelligent with a good understanding of engines then others the total opposite.

It is a strange fleet what do you take when you are going shopping at IKEA or down t' tip ;)

If I go down the tip I borrow me mates Ford Ranger pickup.
When I go shopping well I've gone shopping in them all, if I fear I am going to a busy car park then probably take Clio as its small and fits in spaces easily, whereas lets face it the Ferrari is too wide for spaces so that will be parked in end spaces only to prevent door dings.

Ours wants a load of money for N1 classified vehicles :(

EDIT: Weird looking on the site now it is saying the permits are free - before there was a cost attached.

Yeah can be an issue as its a commercial vehicle, but generally OK, we just blag them and they let us in. :D
