Superb stuff
I havent been whispering anything to anyone so not really who this topic was aimed at no doubt, but even still I have certainly had doubts about how well the different materials are going to interact as they heat and cool over a period of time.
Take it that it was fucking flying then?

Like I know Rods does 180mph at .5 miles, so people would no doubt find it interesting if it was quicker or slower than that and how much by
Bet you were grinning like a schoolboy to finally be able to use it to its full potential Martin?

I suspect you have read a little too much into the wording though mike.
Either way, with that sort of boost at that sort of RPM its going to be QUICK by any standards

Rev limit?
I doubt he would hold his car on the rev limiter
Chassis Dyno?
They were at brunters
On the brakes, or held upto that rpm and worded slightly weirdly?
Very possibly hence my comment to mike not to read too much into just how it was worded

Indeed, it will do what it can at some point, and sometime after Martin will tell us about it if he wants to.
Im "interested" but not "bothered" as its not something I could ever afford/justify to do myself so I wont ever be competing with Martin or following in his footsteps personally.
I think its fantastic though that Martin is pushing the YB boundaries, along with the MAD camp and some of the foreign lads, it can only be good for the scene as a whole

Well done for getting to 8200 in first gear, I'm sure if that was all you did that the MAD lot will see that as a HUGE achievement and come along and congratulate you for hitting 65mph, as that would REALLY have been pushing your block to it's absolute limit and would be a real test of it's capabilities .

Ben,
The full report will be in the magazine . Obviously Martin couldn't help himself and was justifiably proud enough of his achievement to post what he has, as the MAD camp have posted numerous time how they don't think it will take any more than 1.5 bar of boost without letting go .
