240HP at the crank is about right

well with a K series that will cost shedloads! not impossible but i think i would change the engine to a Duratech if i was going over 230bhp with a k series as reliability comes into question at that point!

lol Jeff, do you want to train me in whatever you do as i would love your seeming endless stream of money!

200bhp at the wheels is just plain madness in a car of your weight! 200 at the crank is mad enough!, saying that i am looking into supercharging mine lol


How are your firewall & IT Security skills ? Able to work at a Architectural level for some of the worlds top 100 companies? If so I will hire you to do my job :) And....I've just stopped paying school fees (£1200 per month) so....time for so car money !!!!! Seriously though you have spent considerable more on your Caterham (which is obviously worth more)

Well, i am able to programme Juniper & checkpoint firewalls, spent 3 months setting up and making alterations to the financial times firewalls to name but 1 contract, dabbled in watchguard, mailsweeper ect, i did this in a 3 month break from the cctv, access control, intruder security based systems i normally spec, design and commission i have been doing so since i was 17, so yeah i could get by with a bit more insight :)

So you now know where the endless "stream of money" comes from. I've done consultancy work on firewalls/IT Security since 1992 for people like RBS, Pfizer, Glaxo Smithkline, BT, Capgemini, Barclays & Thomson Reuters as well as a whole host of smaller customers. I run a IT Security company which does the consultancy work on all the major firewall vendors products as well as selling SonicWALL, Juniper & Checkpoint products. I am currently doing work with Thomson Reuters on over 800 checkpoint clusters.

:O failover checkpoint clustering nice! about the only system thats easy to work on as a cluster replication wise, i just wish checkpoint would sort out that poxy secure client! juniper cluster = headache nsm :( uurggh!, sadly i have never got into the consultancy side im more of the hands on guy, yes i know i could make the jump and earn the money but i really dont like wearing a suit stupid i know but true! maybe that will change as i get older i might dislike the tools but right now i love it :)

A lot of the new work is designing and implementing large scale VSX systems for multinationals....I still do the implementation work as well if required.
