Awesome, think you would need to be pulling a gas truck behind you, did not look like an efficient 28L at that.
Has the potential to recreate the scene from Group B rally days when I think it was Kankunnen in front in a rally and his car stopped mid stage, the interviewer asked him what happened expecting him to say it was the gearbox or the turbo...... his response it went bang and stopped.

The Beast is Baaaaaacccckkk!
Looks like a tractor with a boat-tail on it. Hope the crankcase holds for the flying run in June, else they'll need a few hundred bags of Oil-Dry

As a guy who loves all things mechanical that whirr, click, bang and growl...that is just awesome.
Nothing like a good machine- I am one of those that believes most any old mechanical machine has a soul. New ones do also-well some of them anyway. Thanks for sharing, I would love to make it to Goodwood before long someday. |

Wow I would guess that Grandma does not drive that to the store for groceries! Unless she keeps her running. That buggar has some compression!
