As one of the very very few people who know exactly what your project is, I think you will be a very worthy adversary!

It will be very hard for anyone else to keep up.

I think ( due to your engine size ) that we will be in different classes. This should not be used by you as an excuse however.

Yes, you will need to buy some bigger wing mirrors! I will be requiring them as spoils of war after beating you! I like the carbon fiber 'aero' style from Demon Tweeks, so if you can get those, wrap them up in two packages, one for me and one for Ana, and we will fit them for the second race, so we will be able to see you properly....

Cool Look out!!!!!!!

Scottyboy and bubble back together for one race of the year! We will be racing V2 in the cowes torquay cowes thanks to cliff smith after attending the revised andark dunk test with him and others from the forum at the weekend!! He's very kindly letting us use his own personal boat! There will also be others from his fleet joining us for the run to! I even heard a rumour that CB1 and MB1 will be attending in a V24! Could be interesting watching! Yipppeeee

Its not much different. They've got a solo pod on the front of the old one and you have to remove a steering wheel then exit via a hatch in the roof ( upside down whilst on air). The rest of the test is the same.
