[DeTomaso] Balsa bumper front!!!

[Erik L]

Gøran, I would agree with you, if you had a heavy car with an normal
engine, but I belive you got to much torq when we are talking
corners.... and I also Agree about weight are importent( i have an
alpine Renault that are around 870kg), but you got so much power that
I belive the rest are funny to do, but does'nt matter...

You got to a point when you end up with to much hp vs weigth, and
that's not funny- I tried...., and suddenly you would be faster with a
car with less hp/tourq vs weight.

Just my 50 cent, so keep up, we'll be watching you ;-)
