both martin and kev were using steel panels and glass windows too.

carbon/kevlar/fibreglass panels and Perspex windows will shed a LOT of weight

Well Kev needs to turn the aircon off, stereo off, and shut his windows before his run

whilst martin needs to detatch the caravan before his run

Then they will get into the 9s
