it does actually ed, thats the sound of the petrol engine getting up to speed

You can hear the engine in our first match against hamerhead 2 when we came close to the camera. This was because we put the engine at its full rev however this meant that the clutch continually slipped and so the energy from the engery was lost and we didnt get an efficient spin up. From then on we realised that it was better to match the engine rpm to the disc rpm. In the atomic battle the disc had caught up enough to really hear the engine and whilst it probably was amplified it does make that noise when it gets to that speed.

Dont worry Craig we have made a team decision to stop attacking our opponents no matter what the production crew want (if theres another series).

carl the first hit wasnt the fastest, around the 700rpm mark, the biggest was the last which was 800 to 900rpm. Basically our max rpm.
