Not a DPF on a LR but on a Race Truck :-)

Just found these pics from last year when we had to put a DPF on the race truck........... that much fuel and you get this

they wanted us in the pits as they said our truck was on fire, na it was just the pedal was hard down

Rubbing is racing

Did they change the rules so that you had to put a DPF on?

yep they changed it but saying that we had to have a "SMOKE" box and the dpf new was £5k but we got a used one for £1k and its crap on the power so we just change the cam, injectors uped the fuel pump that year and now the scania is sat there wanting to race but we now have another Class 1 FIA truck to race this year and the Scaina is up for rent for racing

This is our new one and currently under going a colour change and more performance tweeks

Aah, what's the new one? Don't say a Renault! They seem to be taking over the world right now

A DAF perhaps?
