Harvey has to make a appearance before that happens lol

I don't think Mike would be that gutted if he got beaten by a car that weighed a fook load less and had more power, if you painted the wheels gold then I think he would be upset if he wasn't ahead

Jim,
I have nothing to lose - being beaten by a car with 100bhp more and 200kg less weight bears no shame what-so-ever for me.

HOWEVER, if for some reason the tables are somehow turned, then HE certainly won't hear the end of it from every man and his dog .
