I am happy to hear my customers have such good results and hope to keep getting back these positive reviews...

FYI for next year we are building a large clay track where we will be able to shoot proper track video for proper documentation of our engines capabilities....
take it easy maxi, wheres the argument?? u need to stop being so sensitive. YOUVE asked me for footage and ive NEVER made any kinda claim so your response is the pot calling the kettle black!

will your documentation be under race conditions or just on vehicle on the track?
