Transparent timing belt covers are available - If they want the cambelt to be on show.

RE: New affiliation w/ Al & Woody, I cannot believe that the cam/rocker cover is not "Red Wrinkle" finish. oh well perhaps was done prior to association.

Could it be the lads (Nik) think red crinkle has been over-done?

I keep hearing references to pixies and releasing the schmoo.. are the boys fans of AvE, or are those colloquialisms more common than I had though?

You know, the thought occurs Nic, if you think the ‘Safety Turbo’ is a little too powerful, you could always fit some sort of air restrictor on the inlet, just make sure you keep an eye on Rich when he tightens the clamps on the hose...

For those (like me) who missed the subtle yet cunning reference in the above, check out https://jalopnik.com/how-the-best-racing-cheat-of-all-time-worked-1792828060.

Simplest approach to keep the safety turbo from being interfered with might be to permanently connect it to the crankshaft. This might also reduce the dangerous effects of lag...

I mean it was VERY clever and the FIA were actually impressed, Max Mosley thought it was brilliant. It was too.
