OK, interesting results from Car Test (AM stats provided by Car Test):

Aston Martin DB7..........Mycroft Soarer

335 bhp@5750 rpm......397bhp @7170

Max. Speed
168 mph......................183 mph

0-60 mph
5.3 sec......................4.9sec

Weight
1820 kg......................1515kg

Or using Mycroft's AM figures:

Aston Martin DB7..........My Soarer

355 bhp@5750 rpm......397bhp @7170

Max. Speed
173 mph......................183mph

0-60 mph
4.9 sec......................4.9sec

Weight
1650 kg......................1515kg

Barge,

Do you have the weight/dimensions, power/torque and gear ratios of your car available? I'd love the chance to compare Car Test with a car tht regularly hits the 1/4 mile.

I cant see the point of your question, Mycroft?

It seems obvious that your car is faster than a DB7 piece of crap English hand made car. I guess the DB7 has nicer wood inside, though LOL

So now we have;

1. Has to be a track race at least 3 hours long.

2. Mycroft has to be able to use aviation fuel with added toluene.

3. It has to be on a Zimbabwean bank holiday.

4. At 3 a.m. in the morning.

5. On a Grand Prix circuit paid for by the challenger.

6. Against anything other than a car it would be embarrassing to lose to, as determined on an arbitrary basis.

Have i missed anything?

LOL 10 pages and still going.

Give Mycroft a medal, his worth his weight in gold for pure entertainment value.

Most forums I have visited today refer to Mycroft in someway.

He could be a Hollywood pavement star soon.....

NACRO - it's easy, simply post your views on a bbs and never qualify them with 'imho'.

Seems to work a treat lol
