A true work of art that car

From what I have heard, Martin is heading for 600BHP.
Good luck to him as he has put a hell of a lot or work and effort into that car.
Regards

Cool

I saw it do 187.7 mph at brunters a couple of years back.
Its always entertaining to watch Martin launch her. The revs rise, then all four light up and the hammers off and warp frickin nine.

I have been hearing about the progress with this car and it sounds impressive. I am not sure if it's for public knowledge yet though

Martin took me out in the car at Bedford a few weeks ago,only running his 330bhp engine,but it is that well set up and the gear box is that good it felt like 450bhp easy

2003 should be a very interesting year

all I can say is LOL at 40 grand for the engine...It wasn't quite that much...

and the engine will be the billy bollox when done...

as I was watching it on the dyno I came to the conclusion that I didn't want to be the first out in the car with the new engine, as it will be scary...

nah, it's not just the speed, it's the close proximity to other cars that worries most people, and gets him told of by the marshalls....'This is not racing you know, see them lotus's over there, well they have all been moaning that you get too close'...

The fact that he has brakes the size of a small country and the car handles very well as well, doesn't seem to bother them...but the marshalls usually get the same response 'Well it's not my fault they are driving slow cars, just tell them to move out of the way...'

Tis all good fun...
