Hahhaa but that trackday I was trying so hard to claim ownership of it. I should have spun around and slammed the door on your friend, stole his keys, stormed north all the way to China to find Zhang Ziyi, sell the car, and marry her.

RB don't geh geh...introduce yourself.

Haha.. I wish I was twice as heavy.

It is kind of funny actually, this thing about americans and burgers. The other day a friend was setting his engine up in the engine dyno cell and there were 4 of us in the room. This 600hp engine is being set up and yet there's little visible excitement from anyone.. everyones just plodding along methodically. And then the topic of burgers comes up and the whole room erupts into real energetic conversation about White Castle, MacDs, Whataburger, Wendy's, etc. which goes on for about 15 minutes after which none of them can take it. They put the work on hold and go out to grab a burger. It was hilarious.

well you havent even finished your intro on your personal preference. so, would you rather shoot a load over a v8, v10, or v12?

 

[Shaun]

Shoot what load?

Engine preference will depend on HP limit, displacement limit, restrictor plate, regulations on vehicle dimensions - if any. Also and for sure, type of course, and type of racing, budget. Assuming none of the four initially listed limitations, and only the last three considerations, and a sub multi million dollar budget, then V8 because of level of development it has undergone compared to the rest is very high. Parts, support, knowledge.
