to be fair, the proton is just as quick, but imo his talent is wasted in these cars he should be in a world car (if i had it my way he would be in with ford taking over from mathew wilson)

I agree he's a much better talent than Matt

But Matt's got the backing

He should be in the BRC at least, would be good to see how he would go against Higgins and co

why did he not buy a 1.6 and then surely the amount he's spent on it would make it mor epowerful than a 1.4?

Because it would have been less competitive in the class with the 1600s.

Its regulations. My guess is that it is a x16xe restricted to 1400cc

keith piper had 194bhp or something through his 1.4 16v, before it blew the biggest hole in the block you've ever seen, and then caught on fire

You could sleeve it down, but then it'd be a really odd, long stroke, small bore 1.4, which wouldn't want to rev
