I know this is an old thread but reading about the arguements about the wood, it isn't knots in the wood that give the effect, it is actually diseased walnut trees that they use. seen it on how its made so it must be true
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Haha, sometimes, you end up trawling through old threads and then before you know it, you have gone and replied to something posted years ago.

I had one on my arse in the outside lane of the M6 at about 90mph, it flashed me and I gladly obliged to move over, I have to admit though I dropped to 5th and booted it too see just how quick they are, it just waffted past like I was stood still they are a very imposing car to be tailgated by though
