...that should not only spin the engine up faster...

I take it you've checked all this with Christine and she's OK with it?  ;D

Yes, she's happy to lose some weight (Ode, to self, stay politically correct with this answer!)   :)) :))

I could have said, any big ol girl as big as Christine would like to lose a bit of weight, but I best not  ;)
All the best Clive

Very nice
Yeah I think racing will be going ahead by April at latest
Don't forget mind Clive
Lots of mods this year
You have big boots to fill  and better on last years results lol
Can't wait to see you go
Good luck

No pressure then   :1rij:
Clive
Given that it has a few modifications to weight and drivetrain
How different do you think it will be to drive ?

I would like to think I race the car on the limit, so as there's no suspension mods, I am not expecting the car to actually drive any different.

Gotta say loving the new MRP website design. That orange colour scheme really pops.

Just as well I was being  politically correct ;) Wow, I wonder how much the Benny Hill Show could get away with if it was made today  :))

Just realised, Christine has led the thread astray, just like many good Christine's must have done before ;D
