trikesrule should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
D type measuring water temp in the front of the head (std). The young driver said the temp drops as soon as she goes out the gate from the dummy grid. Not so Swift ordered a brand new std (copper) rad this morning and yes we always use ww (amazing stuff). The radiator position will be altered to 90 degrees from where it is. Presently it's where the left rear passenger would normally sit. As for having a VN Commodore radiator fitted it's what was in the car when we purchased it. Evidently this engine is far from std internally and $5000 professionally built and won a Victorian Speedway Title two years back. Gone to a copper rad as the alloy ones get too beat up. Also I'm chasing left side weight in this car. The VN one was too centralized. A thermo fan provides the cooling because it got to 40degrees five times last summer..........trikes
