John,
That looks class! Best of health to enjoy her. If she goes half as well as she looks she'll be a flyer!
All the best
Ali

Colibriman,
It works best with plain water. The more antifreeze you at into the system the less effective it becomes at enhancing colling. If I remember correctly, once you are 50/50 then water wetter has no benefit. There is a much better explanation of this on the bottle!!

BTW, my non-scientific testing showed a drop from 78C to 72C when I added water wetter/water mix to my R1.

Jon,
The car looks fantastic. I hope you are going to Donnington as I would love to see it in the flesh.

Regards
Chris
