38.68 hp/liter..... not even my Volvo 340 DL had that low power. And it was a POS 1.4l french pushrod engine (45.7 hp/l).

Wow, that is some pure American elegance you have there. Terrible at corners. An engine with the power and size of a bus, the weight of a van and not tame at all. :)

And yet its more drivable then some of the cars in the competition. Fun thing is if the tires were any smaller on that car they explode from the sheer weight of the car.

In the CTC contest I entered it in to just under 46,000 of them were sold for a just under 55% return (I rounded up a tad).

I tried to order my driver not to hold anyone up in the reverse start, but after finishing in the points last race I don't think he's listening.

Ah I am surprised to qualify ahead of Bob. I'm really looking forward to the second race, I think it'll be hard to pass so we could get some interesting results!

I have been having problems with YouTube for the last month or so, real bad today cant even watch it yet.

Edit: from what I can tell at 144p I qualified 11th?
