Re: Le Mans 2019
How are you getting on with your New Tesla :?: All good so far. Thought I would get used to the acceleration but it’s still wild. I’m mostly charging at home but public charged when I drove to Leeds a few months ago and at last years Classic which is nearly 1000 miles round drive. It serves more pu...

Re: Le Mans 2019
It was definitely tough getting tickets this year. Never seen them sell out so fast! Then having to go through it all again with camping tickets.

Re: EV the future ?
Model 3 towing capacity is 1,000kg. If you need more then get the Y which is 1,600kg. If you are touring and towing a caravan with an EV and you are required to stop to recharge what do you do with the `van if space is limited whilst at a charging point. :-k * * Del.

Re: Declaring extras for Insurance.
Yes all declared. Didn’t make any difference to the price as none increase the power but they are all on there.

Re: Engine type
I’ve always been under the impression the 2600CC is because it’s 1300CC but it fires on every rotation whereas a 4 stroke piston engine fires on every 2 rotations of the crank. It was the easiest way to convert the rotary engine to fit the way the tax system was intended to work at the time.

Electric cars take that to the next level again. That new Tesla Model S Plaid will do 0-100 in just over 4s :shock: And destroy your soul in the process.
