And where are you putting that? Lol

I like the 13b better, can make just as much power for 1/8 of the weight.

What is that from? a jag?

v12

[ferdie]

figure its time for a quick update now that im back on here after a busy 9 or so months....

basically ive been back and forwards with qld transport, i have a prototype artistic drawing and i have some initial chassis designs.

ive got approval in principal for all but my v12. qld transport at this stage wont recognize it as it was never released here. they will accept a LS1 - 5.7lt V8 as its an aus delivered motor.

there are a couple more engineering avenues i can follow to get the motor approved, but got hitched and bought another house so the engineering has been on hold since August.

building a 9m x 12m shed/workshop, will be completed just after xmas, car build can then continue.....

oh and the v12 makes loads more power and with out pushing it, about 3x the torque and is only 30-40kgs more than the s6 13btt

Mad mikes quad rotor That is all

Rotary's are good, but i do like pure grunt.

Those cars rev so slow though (youtube vids).

I can hit my 9k redline almost instantly.
