Mate,a taff is someone from Cardiff,as there's the river taff hence the nickname,it's like me calling you a cockney cos you live in Essex!!
As for the intelligence thing,I can't remember Essex being famous for it's exceptionally bright residents,unless of course were talking about the colour of their hair,skin and stilettos!!!!
And it's renown not renoun,that's not even a word.

v man

rods car is all down to sheedy anyway

rod just signs the cheques (correct me if iam wrong rod) and thats not a funny comment to ward you either mate

people need to understand the skill and knowledge thats gone into this car
the sheer development time and money


rod with out giving to much away or sheedy

lets say i went to mad and said give me rods spec car top to bottom what would i be paying

hope this can give a better insight into whats been achived of the tarmac

i'll correct you (if i'm allowed to) in case rod's not her in time, but he's put a LOT into the car, he used to build concordes or something in a previous life so i think he knows a thing or 2 about putting wires together

StephTell

I don't think Rod having built Concorde's is much of a credit to his technical skills or the reliabillity of his work

this man has the fastest cosworth built (correct me if wrong)i would brag about it all the time,super car performance for a fraction of the price and its an 80's sierra.the car is unreal,
im sure many people would go on if they owned it.

Adam.

A fraction of the price?! think theres plenty of supercars you can buy with whats been spent on the saph

v man

i knew rod has/had an aircraft engineering back ground but still sheedy built the car as it sits now and i know rod helped out on the odd occation but its still sheedys experience and knowledge thats gone into it


would be a completley different story if it where built in rods shed

but thats all irelivent as its the best saff out there today by far
as its not a 1 trick pony

still rods car at the end of the day

How do you convert horsepower to watts?

ajamesc

that was me and i was stood at about the half way mark with rods son niel and they took the bottem bend at the same time ( or he went round it as mark was starting out one of the 2! ) and it was a 1000cc triumph being tested by triumph if i remember right it was a long time ago now im shore he stoped and commented at some point how fast the car was too!

Fast Guy

1hp = 745.699W or 0.746kW

what cars in the same league performance wise though only another tuned car, i dare bet there isnt much this side of a veyron factory supercars.

StephTell

Look, all the pisstaking aside:

Rod's car is stupendously fast full stop.

Compare it to a Veyron, a tuned or non-tuned supercar: it still is in another league to most cars.
