Torotrak Share Discussion Threads

The trouble with Torotrak they have never been honest with their shareholders.So you cannot tell if they are bluffing again prior to another fund raising.

If they get a couple of 10m usd license deals that would suffice for a couple of years

[supernumerary] 30/11/2016 10:13

amt - they're still burning a lot of cash. I'm not sure signing deals will be enough - they need production royalties too, and I can't see them coming in the required timescale.

jpjp100 its hardly been disappointing for staff. They have all been very well paid for producing no viable product over the past 20 years.

[amt] 30/11/2016 07:26

Well st least they have committed to license deals in the next 6 months. They need to sign some deals for cashflow. So we will know if its the same old story very soon. What happened to variable transmission gearbox?

[jpjp100] 30/11/2016 07:13

Everything that reached a crescendo so far, including good demos, then just faded away

Buses were all the rage, now that is a dead duck, before that lawn tractors, small cars, etc. all dead

The initial technology, Ivt, has pretty much gone for a burton in its intended form too

It must be as frustrating for staff as it is for shareholders. I do hope they land one!

NEWS---Lidl are selling spaghetti @20p per pack. Such is the Italian economy! "When will TRK's have it's Dolmino Day?".No smilie!

[lefrene] 29/11/2016 09:40

Same old jam tomorrow routine. "I look forward to collecting my salary for the next six months and would be grateful for a miracle", might be a more honest statement.

[jpjp100] 29/11/2016 09:15

TRK has burnt £6.5m in the year to 30 Sep 16 and has £7.9m left...

Is there any money to come anytime soon from

"Outlook

The first six months of the year have seen an increase in the level of engagement from potential parties interested in the Group's technologies. With a focus on our strategic objective of commercialising and monetising our technologies, the Group's immediate priorities for the next 6 months are:

-- Completing demonstrations of the Ford S-MAX,
-- Licensing V-Charge into the global passenger car market,
-- Licensing KERS into the global off-highway market,

-- Developing commercial interest in the Group's hydraulically-connected ERS product underpinning the commercial uptake in excavators and/or wheel loaders from 2018 onwards,

-- Commencing the production of low cost flywheel assemblies for use in the ERS validation programme.

I look forward to reporting progress on our delivery against these key priorities."

Even with a following wind, I think it is going to be tight.

I wish Adam and the team well.

But is there the promise to Zoom?

[alchemy] 29/11/2016 08:43

Well. A fully listed company not really "zooming" .

[james dean] 28/11/2016 19:24

.....here's hoping -

- well I have been hoping for some time.

A new £390million investment boost for low emission and driverless car manufacturers has been announced by the Chancellor amid claims that the Treasury offered Nissan a "sweetener" deal to remain in the UK after Brexit.

[angus17] 23/11/2016 10:22

Looking at the share price chart it would appear we have finally died.

What chance now of anything positive.???

100+ bagger hhmmmmmm

I'd settle for 40p the price 4 years or so ago when DE left. I wish!

[oliversanvil] 21/11/2016 18:15

Should or if Torotraks tech be taken up. Very likely then not. 11p tops as analysts predict! Rubbish! 100+ bagger.Make no mistake DYOR.

[oliversanvil] 16/11/2016 18:37

hxxp://www.rapidtables.com/convert/number/PPM_to_Percent.htm---- UK 10ppm Most third world countries 50ppm and more!

[oliversanvil] 12/11/2016 10:07

More optimistic with my investment here after watching this old clip. From another BB that i missed earlier hxxp://www.enginelabs.com/news/inside-look-variable-speed-supercharging-technology/ Such a neat little add on package.

[bodgit] 09/11/2016 20:11

Interim results on 29th November. Will it be yet another 'jam tomorrow' chapter in the long running saga? Or maybe a 'no jam' chapter? Hmmmm. Good luck all.

[supernumerary] 31/10/2016 11:13

Always something new under the sun! One for the engineers - I don't think it's addressing any of the same markets as TRK - but interesting:

[oliversanvil] 26/10/2016 10:46

Carmakers also have a number of technologies to reduce nitrogen oxide and dioxide levels. These include catalysts, re-circulating some of the exhaust fumes back into the cylinder, and injecting urea, made from ammonia, to trap these gases.

The problem is they are not being used widely enough and, when they are, they don't work as well as they should.

As the respected International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) says, "the technologies for real-world clean diesels already exist, but they are not being employed consistently by different [carmakers]". Some have speculated it's simply a question of cost.

[oliversanvil] 24/10/2016 13:00

The MM's keep riding the share price clutch! Perhaps revving up for a drag start,as TRK have" dropped the clutch".

[bodgit] 21/10/2016 10:53

Can sell quarter of a million at 4p - someone just did. Good luck all.

Edit: I now see it was a delayed report from a trade at 09.51.
