Exactly as you said, the gains will be minimal to be able to offset the cost of R&D.As for knowing where im going, I think I still ask myself that question everyday!I used to believe in doing things once and do them properly, but by the time ive reached my goal I think I could have had 3 of everything. But its all experience.Ive got a motor on order through Brad at Atomic. Just waiting on the pistons to arrive from O/S. I still stumble over which snail to step up to.

I see it spending alot of its future at dyno comps and trade shows. I got a ute so it can still be used as a work ute.Ive got a MX 5 track car so ive never had the intention in regularly running it down the 1/4. Maybe the odd one.

The last 18 months ive lived and breathed XR6 Turbo's. Been a refreshing change from the Jap side of the business. As with anything though, you cant learn it all by just focusing on the theory side. I shouldnt say it on here, but we bought a VE Clubsport at the end of last year. Sold the R34! We'll start on the VE once the F6 bills stop coming in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most I spoke to about it didnt think I was that committed I got a couple of customer cars coming together ATM with 42's and 45's. Cant have the FG pulling up the tail for much longer.
