Most (aka almost all) 1000bhp cars have a measurable eph (engines per mile).

phah typo helfire! Thats a big supra!
I have watched the sr8 ring lap. Thats some gutsey driving. Love the way he skins a sl amg i think on one of last corners, like it is stand still!
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!
Please read my ring story:

Exactly
m hoping to squeeze somewhere between 250 and 350bhp at 800Kg. Could go even more and go for 480 but im not sure i really need to, or have the money
to!
At maximum target, id hope to see 437.5bhp/t, but if i do go for 480 then it will look more like 600bhp/t (with the help of Top Boss Performance).
- Hence the change for the cosworth V6.
Kindest Regards,
Richard.

Hi
Complete waste of time in most cases as most seven types are struggling to put 150 Bhp down to the ground with any efficiency. Never mind trying to
put stupid amounts of uncontrolled turbo power down.
Proof is in the pudding. Mega turbo average kit cars doing lap times barley any better than 90Bhp locost race cars and being slaughtered by 160 bhp
750Mc kit cars and RGB cars.
Whats the symbol for banging head against the wall. Lol
Cheers Matt

My turbo kit car puts down about 300 bhp without too much fuss. Certainly wouldnt want less.
