Maybe the way the Rad was mounted (brick wall) may have had a effect on top speed

His top speed was well down last year without that rad and 10 inch chair wheel so probably no difference.

Does anyone ever put an outfit in a wind tunnel? Most are about as aerodynamic as a brick, I should reckon.

I remember Moly taking his to the BAR Honda tunnel years ago. Probably after his 'Bluebird-like' flip.
