Was at Silverstone on saturday and some kind soul managed to throw a 50mm bolt straight into my radiator. In hindsight, some mesh in front of it would have been useful (reminder to those not running any mesh), however, it's now cattle trucked, as I think it's damaged about 3 'cores' (and also left a nice 'I' shaped pattern in the rad).

In terms of buying a new one, what are the recommendations - the std caterham one is around £200+VAT, the 'triple core' is about £280+VAT (from caterham), wheras the radtec triple core ones are around £200+VAT. The car puts out >210hp and is used exclusively on track, so gets a hard time! Has anyone had any problems with the Radtec radiator.

My work has now blocked all 'forums', so please drop me a PM through my profile, as I'm looking to buy another one asap!

thanks
