Talk about a kickass design project.....

I can only imagine how many CNC hours go into each machine.

Around 500lbs

30 pounds heavier than my 950smr and over double the power.

Yeah. I guess that could work.

209 HP from a pushrod twin engine?  Are you kidding?  Is it a pushrod or am I seeing something else?

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

A large motor, compared to our world, 2163cc.

I was skeptical of the power and torque claims, but it's in line with current BBC car motor numbers.
