4-Reports.
a – Steve Parker – Internal Engine Project leader – 
Steve also has a lot to report and may spread over several meetings but don’t miss out on what he and Darren Farr and Co are up to with their super Speed boat racer project. Steve has specialized in hot vapour super mileage systems and has achieved 110mpg. The team are incorporating some of the ideas into this super V8 racing boat. –
Topics for discussion: 1) – Lean burn technology applied to methanol fueled, fuel injected, turbo charged, inter-cooled, race engines.
2) – Lean burn L.P.G. engines, why it is easier than petrol to implement.
b- Peter Campbell – Chief Technical Adviser Report
c- Any other reports?
5- Due to unforeseen circumstances Charles wont be able to make it for some time.
6- Brian Bayliss has some great news on his ‘burning water’ high frequency resonator. He has some Youtube footage to show of his initial tests which he says are quite successful. Clearly water is burning by applying a frequency. This is cutting edge technology and has profound implications. He is also involved in other exciting projects which we may put over to the next meeting depending on time. – 15 min
7 – Gavin Nicoll – Gavin has been researching a company in the USA that are machining heads using CNC technology to greatly enhance air flow and combustion swirl chambers. This technology has achieved astounding improvements in power and efficiency.
