It may well be the fastest but that doesn't mean it has the most power... the VL's that are half a second behind weigh a lot more than this car. It's a 6 second car... it's way faster than the RB's we have here and it's hard to gauge what it's putting out because the cars over here are different and much heavier. Hopefully a VL see's a 6 second pass one day!

Yeah it would be interesting to see this combo in a VL chassis that's for sure.

I was thinking the same thing, If he brought it to Aus and ran at willowbank or Sydney would it manage a better time!

Does anyone know if this a 3.0 bottom end or does it house one of his stroked engines?

love to see this come over and race on a track like wsid or willowbank it would be hella fast if he could use a lot more power off the line.
