no but its not untill more recently that the demand for a higher performance clubman emerged so all the ideas and things learned over the years can be put into a new design

"no but its not untill more recently that the demand for a higher performance clubman emerged so all the ideas and things learned over the years can be put into a new design", are you suggesting that previous designs have been rushed to market?! (lol)

harry barlow spoke to me at length, about 18 months ago about the direct relationship between clubman tailpipe diameter and piston crown temperatures when he built me my ts1 clubman - i am sure ron and mark would know about this too.

Yes,its common knowledge.
