Well i have a small stand at the show this weekend, i Gave the F6 a quick belt on the dyno, Unfortunatly the dyno mustnt of liked me as BOTH the straps broke and the F6 Jumped the wheel chocks and lept forward slamming into the cooling fan putting a hole in my fron bumper the size of a 20cent piece.

Car made 485 rwhp.

Well Simon,

Despite the "hole" episode she was looking REAL good when I visited your stand today and man.... that dyno graph... sweet as.... she's not a graph.... more like a cliff, that power output just goes vertical

.... awesome power you have got out of your new toy..... spoke to other people there and they were very impressed on the power output from a car that did not look anywhere as worked as some of the other exhibits

Now about those extra goodies for number 44.... I know its sad but 305 is no longer enough

Well done mate!

I was wondering how the cars would go in there.. Being under pressure and all..

You getting more out of it??

Higher air pressure than atmo isn't it??

500rwhp is a damn good effort, keep em honest

I think because the air in there is somewhat recycled the O2 level is a little lower so the cars run richer than they would if it was out in the open air.

Just like if it was at a higher altitiude so have to tune accordingly ,
