He has driven it on 500+ mile round trips to get to events, so I hope so.

last year it got driven yes, this year possibly, but they must have a fuel tanker following. the extremely trick fuel cell in the boot cant hold anymore than 15 litres i should think.

somehow i dont think they will be getting a ps lewis type 30mpg either
