He goes on so as to add, “I can’t say an excessive amount of about it simply but, however over the approaching weeks and months we’ll begin to launch extra info. It would, fingers down, be the best undertaking we have now ever achieved, and maybe one of many coolest initiatives ever achieved (in our opinions anyway).

Our inner design temporary for the brand new engine is, ‘Be cool as F##Ok’.”
