Not heard that one, but there is rumour that Carl Austin is going to add a third engine to his Mini for good measures. Isambard Kingdom Brunel said:

Rob youve heard wrong me old bean! Carl is actually ripping out both his old engines and replacing them with a Tom Fenton. The accellator will be a stick that pokes tom in the ass and he pedals harder. 1/4 Mile 14.3secs 96Mph Terminal 10psi of boost.

no no no,,, you have it all wrong,,, the fact is that Carl is going to add an extra 2 engines so he then has one for each wheel,,, sort of "Natural" limited slip diff situation,,, rumour has it that he`s produced a titanium engine block & cyl head assy, the increas his purchase discount on the titanium market simply because he`s struggling to find other things to make out of titanium www.miniman.com.au

hmm true carl, although i personally can think of better things to spend that much money on, a super car for one! still if he does do it fair play to him, but personally i think 9 seconds in a mini is quite quick enough, still give me a car that handles and has power rather than just power.....
