Do you have any idea how much hp/torque you are running at the rear

wheels? Have you ever dynoed it? I checked your website, hoping to see

a picture or tow of it along with some stats, but I couldn`t find it.

Is it hidden somewhere on your site Ric?

Years ago, I saw a much more detailed list. It had things like Green waves

first to red, but red waves first to blue because red were so common, etc.



Then things like 300 hp wave to fuellies first, t-tops first to

convertibles, etc.



The worse thing I have found about waving is the angle of the C5s and C6s

tend to make the drivers invisible and it is hard to see if they are waving

or not. Many are, I`ve found, but it is hard to tell.



Blonde with a phone implanted in her ear, forget it. She thinks the world

revolves around her.

If she nails the throttle with that phone in her ear the world WILL

revolve around her.

Title: McLaren MP4-12C

McLaren returned back by its new monster McLaren MP4-12C . Behind the tub sits a twin-turbo 3.8-liter V8 engine producing around 600 horsepower and 433 lb-ft of torque, offering what McLaren claims is the highest horsepower to CO2 ratio of any internal combustion engine on the market – gasoline, diesel or even hybrid. Contrary to earlier speculation that suggested Mercedes could continue furnishing its erstwhile partner with at least the engine blocks while producing its own SLS supercar and furnishing Pagani as well, McLaren says the unit was developed entirely in house. The bespoke mill features a flat-plane crank, dry sump and can rev up to 8,500 rpm, though 80% of the torque is said to be available from as low as 2,000 rpm. That ought to be good for a 0-60 time in the low threes and a 200+ mph top end.
