Here it is... Not bad for a car that will be purposely beaten to the point of destruction! Watch it on SPEED in June!
I can't disclose info on the engine as our opposition is watching! |

Jake,
Why the hate towards anything watercooled? Maybe I missed your reasoning. Is it due to better performance and longer life?. PS I visited your shop and was very impressed so please dont yell at me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) David |

I try to praqctice what I preach and lead by example- thats why everything I drive daily is aircooled and moreover is Type 4 powered with the exception of the Pinzgauer that is aircooled and powered by Steyr- Puch. Its just aircooled pride......thats all. (And a bit of rebellion against cars made from recycled materials, produced half assed and are created to be disposable.) |
