A nice demonstration of why lightened flywheels aren't always such a great idea too. - if you value your ankles.

If I had something with that sort of power I would have to have a restaining order on my right foot.


Years ago there was a car mag that came out with some off beat cars in it, V8 skoda, quite a rapid 280z that had been turno charged and a V8 race engined beetle, now I am not a beetle fan at all, cars or music.  But, something for the odd hill climb would be nice.
