Adam came round tonight to show me the finished car, even let me take it for a drive!

Have to say its the quickest 1.6 i have ever driven, and i think there is a fair bit more to come when its set up correct. I could feel a few flat spots, but it pulled all the way round to 7000 rpm in every gear with it kicking in around 2500!

It will easily keep up with a standard 2l 16v as it is, so look forward to trying it when its set up. Almost preferred it to mine, because you felt as though you were 'driving' the car as opossed to the car driving you, guess it was due to the weight of the engine.

Well done ad and i look forward to racing you at the Nurburgring! :twisted:
