Not letting any secrets out yet... But have decided on the next project.

I would presume that Dean will learn from the mistakes of BigBad (not that there were many) and maybe try and top what was done previously.... I would simply call it an evolutionary step!

Am I right Dean??? :wink:

The only sensible step up from a piston engine is to a rotary!

Excited to see what happens!

Some would argue that is not a step up, but a step backwards!

But yes, I am waiting to see what Dean hs come up with.

Bigger... Better... More sensible... Yet faster more usable power.

Aim:

1.) To create something subtle but will still drop people's jaw to the ground if they look closely.

2.) To have something uniquly different. But not in your face.

3.) Something more refined & get power to the ground that can be used.

4.) Something that will still seat the family. So will need space for 4 bums. (not my worry if kids are squished in the back)

5.) Something that will be home on the track, drag strip & still pass each time a policeman decides to pull me over & try to defect me.

6.) Something NOT running a ROTOR!

Sorry still not letting to much out of the bag yet.

What I will say thou..

Motor has been chosen. Turbo has been chosen. Detail of the step by step build is coming together.

Thanks all its great to be back.

This will deffinatly be a advancement on every choice made with Bigbad.

I love Bigbad & still think I paid people to build something great. I regret Selling it.

I just want to take it all to the next level this time. I want to be involved and do alot of the work myself this time & my welding skills are coming along too..

Time is in my favour with this build. As I don't have a business of my own anymore.

Plus I will be investing in some far more superior skills this time for some parts of the job.
