    it is incredible that someone thought 'i know, i'll stick a tank engine in an sd1', when a v8 from the states would be so much easier........

    i have never been to a ppc mallory park event, but i would imagine it would be awful round a corner, but the straights would be outrageous

    it must weight about 3 tons
