Patrick,

Pilots are never lost ! but sometimes we're temporarily unsure of our position...

I'm in the Dermot camp...mostly production engines with more forgiving tolerances...I'm not saying it shouldn't be warmed up but a good fast idle for as long as the cooling system can stand it then shut it down to let it heat soak, I would have thought doing this 30 mins before heading off to the as...

I'm not a big fan of facebook, I like the current forum format, I do realise it requires effort from the admistrators to keep it up and running...its much appreciated.

My vote is no to Facebook.

Initially I did look towards a Kent engined car but hear they can be fragile and I guess if I get...

Hi All, I'm not sure if folk usually make an introduction but I am so here goes.....I'm a newbie hoping to make a foray into single seater racing next year, currently going through the prelims of gaining a licence.
