well there's tenacity and then there's stupidity. I wonder if his driving force is to prove all us unbelievers wrong.

Having followed this farce from the beginning I think he actually has some form of mental illness

 

I'm not sure what  it is or whether we should feel sorry for him but there is definitely a sort of tenacity and denial which is borderline narcissist

Might be same "mental illness" that R.J.Mitchel or N.Tesla or F.Whittle or other countless boundary pushers had. If it wern't for such people we'd all still be living in caves.

They didn't rob, defraud and deceive other people to do it though did they? If you can't see the difference then perhaps you think that's acceptable

I wonder how long it had run before he removed the carbon "rocker cover" plate that he was adamant was fine even though everyone said it was stupid.

I don't know about any alleged defrauding or deceiving, if that's the case then that is something I hate too. I was just commenting on his tenacity and his desire to push the boundaries.

Yes. Looks like he's doing drag racing after the most recent fire.

That's from a few years ago... He's turning it into a 'drag' car now, with circa 500hp from the k series which if true is good going..

Haha, just watched some of that video and i quote, he likes to learn, listen and pick things up, whilst what he really meant was, ignore any advise from anyone who knows, yes a definite illness or the thickest skin known to man!

Is this still going on or has he found something else to ruin?

I think he has decided maybe a straight line of a 1/4 mile is safer.

He decided that a while ago and things are all quiet. Would be interesting to know if it's rotting away in his garage or if it's being sold on to some unsuspecting poor soul.
