Maciej, thanks for the definitive statement about what Eddie Bello's reacecars are and aren't.

May I enquire how you know these facts? Given that you are 19 years old you must have been quite young when Eddie was building and running these racecars so it made me wonder how you came to be part of his racing team?

Not racing team. I know enough to say what it was and wasn't.

And once again, why bring age into it?

I am going to go out on a limb here and boldly predict that someone will run a 9.x today.

Maciej, great photography, I know you do a lot of photo shoots for people.

I didn't get a straight answer on my question, how do you know about the engineering on Eddie Bello's racecars?

The reason I mentioned your age of 19 is that I was thinking about Eddie Bello's racing career and thinking that if you have been closely associated with him for some time you must have been quite young. That made me curious about what part you played in his raceteam. Thanks for clarifying you weren't part of his race team. But how do you know about his engineering?

Regarding your age, I don't believe I've ever mentioned it before. There's no need to be defensive, just a straight question.

Blonde when we were all young we had heroes and were confused about those heroes. Sometimes those heroes had different agendas and we were mislead. I am not speaking for Ogryn just giving an opinion.

Something like that. Easier to have that said instead of me getting into it and frustrated with what happened.

No wonder you have the fastest 996TT time. This is living proof that the JT thing is not a myth.
