Yeah, go for it man! You'll never regret it. It might even be more reliable than the wedge!

Newer yes, but not sure how you worked out that its faster than a Tamora?

To my knowledge they use the same underbody, weight the same and use the same engine? How do you make one faster than the other?

Or have I missed something on the T350 spec?

better aerodynamics gives it a better top end (which will be of huge importance in the UK)

Flasher and I were neck and neck at Bruntingthorpe - he probably had a marginal handling advantage in the twisties, but I seemed to have a straight line speed adge - possibly the slightly extra weight of the T350 (plus mungo!), and a tighter, newer engine. Otherwise they're the same.

Well, the tamora was nice very nice infact. those seats ...oooo wow... the steering very precise. hmmm, i think im going to have to thing long and hard about it. ... im still struggling with my conscience though.... Im not a straight 6 fan .. it was good to hear some pops and burbles on th eover-run, but im a V8 boy at heart ... might need another test drive in a Cerbie

no top end is down a bit as it has a lower final drive, which by the same note should make it a tad more accelerative.

will be a limited amount in it, personally i am still limiting myself to 6k revs up to 3,000 miles odd.
