Won the heat but Neil had a hard time controlling the saw with the constant boots up his arm and in particular his elbow joint he couldn't straighten his arm after the event plus he cut out of alignment on the last cut and was disqualified ...... hows that for a shocking experiance

The kill switch wire earthed to the throttle cable at full power.

Now we have no kill switch wire "snip snip" and we use the decompressor to kill it.
