    Glad I skipped on that.

    Clutch- wow, awesome stripes!

    I can't help but laugh, but with those yellow tinted headlights and if the car were to be painted green, it'd look like an amphibian.

    Been waiting for it to be published for AGES.
    Provided some photos for the author from archives and he didn't use any of mine boo !!!

    Great reference on race tracks/hillclimbs/stages in British motorsport history.

Motorsport has thrived on these islands for over 100 years and this outstanding book - a true labour of love - describes over 800 sites at which competition activity has been traced and provides location information so that readers can discover and visit venues for themselves.

    ^^^ That looks VERY cool. There's a lot of motorsport history in the British Isles... talk about research effort!

    Bummer about your photos contributions, Matra.

    Why the expansion chamber? Back in the paintball days it was called a "volumizer."

    It uses the Helmholtz theory which creates additional surge in the exhaust. There are countless dyno sheets on these showing more torque than with just a straight pipe. The downside is they cost more.

    Sounds like magic. If you have x amount of force going into the exhaust, than you have a maximum of x amount coming out. Newton has been proved wrong?
