I’ve just been doing some calculations & if you believe one school of thought, exhaust primaries should be a minimum length for optimum flow. Of course space is the biggest issue here, but by my math (using optimum diameter pipe), the minimum primary lengths are as follows: 560: 538mm 6.9: 632mm

OMG I’m loving this dash!!!!

We’re now at 6(.)9 members and growing. Hopefully with the fantastic changes to the website new members will begin to flow. Hopefully no so many that TK loses its ‘local pub’ appeal!

One of the silver linings of COVID is we’re now thinking outside the square. Some of the new changes are awesome ideas & should continue into the future.
