Fantastic pics thanks for posting them.

I remember the first time I heard about this stuff - flywheels exploding. About age 17 working after school at the local garage with friends who all liked the odd street drag.

I couldn't work out if it was real or not. Stories of legs being amputated by the flywheel as it left the car - that sort of thing.

There was no way I was going to be scared into spending money I didn't have to, especially on a flywheel - !

Eventually I was convinced - not that I got another flywheel - was just more careful.

Guess now there'll be another mob of guys with some practical experience on the value of performance parts.
