loads o' space you could fit a third one in there.

It would be like tractor pulling.





Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

Anyway - he won't be taken for exceeding the Db readings - he'll break the meter before they can get a measurement with those exhausts..

Interesting question - do you link up the motors at 90 deg, 180 deg or 360 degree or at what rotation.

Perfect 50/50 weight distribution with an average sized American in the driver's seat. Should handle well.

Thats so he can break traction and smoke the tyres for effect

Nice car, but not my cup of tea.






1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

Downton tuned 1071 Cooper S engine would be about that each. Still not a lot by modern standards I suppose.
