g0dd4m!
j00 d00|)z 4r3 fr3333k1n /\/\3 0u7!
w33 wr07E d4 |300|< 0n "1337" ... literally.
should find out where we posted it. Came up on "think geek" after several forum members got addicted to "megatokyo" webcomic. Needed a decypher codec! So we researched the different styles, made upper and lower case "4Lph4B37s" lol - in the different styles, along with accompanying usage sig's and grammar changes... wheeee! 
On "SPEED HOLES".. (Matt McFarlane) "D00d! you got SMOKE coming outta your SPEED HOLES!" - then rolled off into several minutes of laughter.
Ever since then, the aerodynamic and engine-bay airflow venting I was designing into the hood (bonnet) of the MA47 got termed "speed holes". Yes, Marge, they're 'speed holes'... riiiight.
Anyway - a pattern of holes drilled into the sheetmetal aft of the valve cover to vent high-temp air also had the effect of lowering the stall effect at the base of the windshield! Well, combined with a front spoiler/airsplitter that sits about 40mm off the tarmac anyway lol. Stuff air in/ vent air out = cool engine, less going bang.
Nice dual purpose speed holes......
