New (bonkers) Seight

[Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman]

As with everything, you have to go with what you’re comfortable with.

 

i use an alloy tank, because I saw the damage it did to a members feet when a plastic tank split on the start line of a sprint, and scalding hot water poured down through the scuttle onto his limbs.

 

The irony was, I seem to remember he was taken to the same A&E where he worked, and his colleagues took the p*sis mercilessly, once they’d got him comfortable.

Understand, individual choice. Also had once hot coolant in footwell due to engine failure and immediate pressure buildup in cooling system. it was not so much fluid as it was via cap, and luckily was wearing thick suit and high shoes. That is why I proposed new header tanks rather than old ones from used cars of unknown history. 
(in my case more dangerous was that my foot slipped from wet clutch pedal under brake pedal and I could not brake for a moment, and there was 180deg turn in front 😕
