The META pick up now has a brand new battery supplied by Richard Granholm through his company BATTERY WORLD.
Richard is a novice this year in his very fast Firman RFR1000 (white #15).
Thanks Richard and good luck with your new 'rocket' Smiley.

I may have some credit in this - I bought a battery from Richard (I believe) a little over a year ago and obviously sold him on how much fun racing is.

Nice try Tiago but wrong Roll Eyes.
Richard was formerly a crazy downhill skier and a friend of Bob Styan's who was one of the 'crazy Canucks' of the 1980's. Bob brought him to the track and he got hooked on the idea of racing a formula car.
Of course your purchased would have helped him buy the RFR 1000 Firman Wink.

Oh well, you're probably right.

I will say though that Richard (if indeed he was the guy I talked to, I believe so) was kind enough to ask what my requirements were and after I explained what kind of car I drove and what I needed a battery for (essentially, ballast! hehe..), he steered me away from the unnecessarily expensive option I had in mind.

Probably saved me over $100 right there.. So if you need a battery, go to Battery World!  8)

We are in agreement, Richard is a great new addition to our racing 'family' and a very generous sponsor Smiley.
