    Doh... oh well guess you will be degreasing the engine bay tomorrow then, Jizzer is Good.

    I always worry about those bloomin clips, i put a tie's round mine just in case.

    I'm needing a new rad soon so will also be doing the clips to.

    Don't get me wrong guys but like Liam said the flames only come from the exhaust after 4-5 secs of me coming off the go pedal completey. There is no shadow of a doubt that mercs car goes very well but he couldnt get passed me till I let him! (by coming off the throttle)

    Sod Avon, any race track any time...

    Sounds like my old t4, get the revs high then let off the throttle and a few seconds later theres a nice spit of flame out the back. lol
