This year we win!

Well The website has been down for ages I guess. So I thought that with the advent of Evo two I would launch it again :)

This year I think we have a real chance of winning! How many times have I thought that!!! Seriously all the mistakes we made with Executioner 1 have been ironed out with Evo2. The beast is nearly finished woohoo. The motor has now been seriously tuned and to be honest I have never seen a powerband that goes strait up ha ha. With the new gearing we now achieve zero to 3500 rpm in less than 2 seconds. This is with a 30kg disk so it is rather scary to say the least. Still I have always been into overkill ha ha. Oh yes and for all you Gyro people out there. We have no vertical gyro effect whatsoever with our tests. I am unsure why this is as we are shifting in a vertical plane a serious amount of metal. Perhaps it is because the machine is so short and low. Anyway in driving tests it is very stable in turns with the disk flat out.

I am so happy about this as it was my major concern to be honest. Oh yes and because of all the weight we have saved with new materials and the new very small design we can add a whopping 38.5kg of armour.
