Notice how the LPE C5 ran 204mph at 6000rpm with 450hp - I need to put in a 3.15 rear axle and see how fast my car will run with 475hp and a 6700rpm red line... :twisted: :twisted:

Cheers RC, I love reading about the 80s and 90s supercars, I see in one of the scans the M635, always one of my favourites as a lad.

If you've posted these before it must have been a long time ago perhaps before I joined as I dont recall seeing any scans from you before, or I missed the threads.

Cool!

Thanks again,
