So I guess that there'll be no more waiting to see the Kolles entry burst into flames (kinda) at random?

In all seriousness, I think that trying to run a turbo engine may've been the root of the problems for all I know about the Kolles machine. Turbocharged engines have different cooling parameters than atmo engines do, and atmo engines typically have simplified requirements as far as cooling and heat rejection/packaging.

Now I guess we'll watch and see for a different reason as to how the Kolles team gets on, and I hope that this experiment will be a success.
