When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

Hydro's are generally pretty quick, even the electrics, and it's even more interesting watching a full heat racing. Personally I prefer
offshore mono's. My last FSRO 3.5 cc was clocked at 62mph. 36,000 rpm through a reduction gearbox! Obviously breakdowns were quite common and
quite spectacular (take the head off and tip the bits out!). It is now with a new owner and winning races in the USA.

Great, does a Donald Cambell after turning round,  Ray
To make a car go faster, just add lightness. Colin Chapman - OR - fit a bigger engine. Chippy
