I really hope he tunes the engine, or he would have a faster car with a standard mini with a well tuned a series.

Mmm causing quite the stir on many-a-forum; I think people like the almost limitless attention to detail & meticulous fabrication. These guys must have been doing it most of their adult lives to have such an understanding what's going to make the difference in all aspects.

The shell's going to be bomb-proof even without a cage, all the finer points & niceties are given as much time & consideration as anything else, that engine is extremely unusual yet seems ideal based on its dimensions and even in more or less stock output, that thing's going to be outrageous. Love the way they've moved heaven & earth to retain standard panels / dimensions, but want to make it's accessibility & function as good as it ever could be.

I'm sure they'll be happy with around 240bhp with a really smooth / progressive / usable curve, but maybe on the engine they'll prove me wrong & just go apesh1t 400bhp for the lols

I'm up to Episode 5 now, it's an excellent watch, very entertaining and some real skill.

Long time coming and not nearly enough fabrication for me in this episode, hopefully the next one will be better and not take so long, although I appreciate how much time it must take.

I think they spent too long proving ackerman with measurements then said yeah it's fine cos inside wheel turns more than outside.

Good work on the cable shift.
