the problem was the put the funniest one on first......they had a hell of a benchmark set after that......

The mincer was cool, made me chuckle.....the Avantine was a good example of someone not knowing where to start.....

Huge brakes need huge wheels, but you lose 0-60 if the wheels are too big, no one had taken the time to establish what the condition of the engine was like and it all went a little to pot after that....

I like the Renault, very different thinking

Would be nice if the Renault racing team offered to spend a day finishing it off.

I thought the Renault was a waste of a rare car, they could have had my wifes Rover diesel to make a mess of, straight swap ::)
