Thanks Mike

I took your advice and spent all night consuming copious quantities of the Brown

Right now I just don't care if my wheels fall off or not

I would love to hear from Trevor Booth on this one. As a mechanical engineer and one who has been involved in centre lock wheel design he should be able to bring some definitive and relevant tech/physics to this thread.

Where are you Trevor?

Cheers,

BTW Mike, how do you know about NZ's best kept secret?
