Yep. I need to re watch the episode. The missus was here and talking so I'm sure I missed stuff.

Those guys are so meticulous. I have to go back to the start and watch all the episodes. What a mission that alternator air con setup was.

When they're sitting in it the space looks really tight! I dont see how in that sitting position they'll be able to wear helmets, and I dont see how they're going to cage it. They said its a bitumen car, so maybe they're not planning to cage it but with that much power up front and no ability for anything to crumple in an impact due to being packed solid with running gear hitting something at speed will suck! Then again, maybe after all this it wont be driven in anger? It definitely wont be slow!

This is a road car, they did build crash zones into the front end frame work, but yeah I see what you mean by packed in.

I can see them changing the fuse box and wiring and lowering the seats later its there style to change there mind and undo stuff lol

They would have saved a lot of problems if they lengthened the front of the mini but they stated at the start that they weren’t going to do so.
