I couldn't agree more with this observation! Unfortunately, apart from a few after work laps (with street tyres, exhaust silencer etc) I never got to test the 12Kg out on the track when fitted up to 4.11 box... was too afraid I'd break another box! But I swear it would've been beaut!!

From memory Doug... it didn't appear you were having "less fun" that day?? LOL!
