I know mine will be going the strip a few times-- and I will pissed I am am running anything over 13's hopefullly get it to the low 12's.
The engine I am using was taking a car more than a 1000 lbs more than I will end up with in the 13's.

I was talking to a researcher working for Caterham and i was astounded by the lightest (and most expensive car) Caterham have made... Any guesses at
cost....? Try £82,000! And weight with half a tank but no driver of this one off special was a mere 380kg! Needless to say not just the fancy looking
bits were carbon!

BHP/Ton - 198, gets to 100km/h in under 6
