Unfortunately, wifi here is sketchy and drops out a lot. I'm struggling to post on here, even with the added punch of an iPad. We are taking loads of photos and will upload them somewhere when we return for all to see.

Orca Tuning - Smart ForFour
(It is a 1.3 that is raced in Germany in Group N ....using a 85/15% ethanol gasoline mix)





Under bonnet view..showing cold air 'funnel' to the airbox.
(The entry to the inverted and cut down airbox is the lighter mesh square)



Orca behind a Brabus with modified flared arches. (Took lots of work I was told)
