Title: Great Balls of Fire
Post by: PaulG on February 06, 2016, 12:51:03 PM
My brother just told me about this. Saw it on Discovery Channel. Snetterton 300 in 2015.  And I thought my leaking carbs was a pain the ass.....  :sorry: yes, a bad pun.

High pressure/ low pressure no difference... Time for our yearly reminder:
