(Somebody lied on actual shipping weights originally by a little to get a little on each car shipped monetarily, and hp output was assigned on engine family (that does not really compare in reality), instead of actual indiv. combo historical real performance
numbers. (They corrected it once on the HP side, then put 6.5 percent back on before I returned). Still chasing my tail, but I will get there in spite of bad math and hurdles. (6 total runs historically in 1995, and in 2023 tell me the possibility exists). But, I have never raced it at either its true advertised weight or horsepower, or both.
Now that would be crazy good.
