I wouldn't doubt it. I can turn a consistent 57.5 w/o the ballast. If it were a longer track I think my R8 could keep up better (shift into 6th @ 204mph, accelerate to 280+ mph on Sarthe II.)

The scary part is when my roommate's brother shows up. He races shifter karts. He smoked me by over a second, and has maybe 10% of the milage I put on this car.

Toyota Minolta Race car ('89).  Max everything.  1184bhp.

After fixing a few minor gearing & grip difficulties......55.202.

It'll come down lots.



ya know.....this may be mildly unfair to those who havn't won something really fast or had the time to run the rally course cheat 20 times in order to gain the 4.5m cr needed for a top of the range race car.......

We need to decide when to reset the scoreboard.....


What do you guys think, first to 100 pts wins the championship, then reset back to zero again?
