I think this is the most interesting Unlimited racing currently, I'd like the enlightened to tell us all about her, was she at one time World Jet? owned by Don whittington?
Does a Griffon engine have the ability to drive the Mustang airframe fast enough to keep up with Strega? what about props ? would a Rotol 5 blade be better? is the modifed shackelton contra prop as good as it gets ? can the griffon run at higher MAP and lower RPM than the Merlin ? what nose case gears do Griffons run? what does Mr Nixon think? what does Sparrow think? what advice would Steve Hinton and the old RB team give to Thom Richard and his crew?
This would be a much more interesting thread that the one about whether or not PM was late qualifiying and how professional her crew were and was the flux capacitor leaking... ( sorry watched back to the future the other night and i think PM should have one of those!!!)
I attended Reno in 2011 and loved seeing her roaring round the pilons again, sadly I couldnt make it this year as I blew the Reno money on our wedding and plane tickets from England arent cheap!!
