Any one watching the 12 hrs of Sebring on speed? 3hrs left. Audi diesel w/800ftps of torque was in first place last time I checked. Talk about farting in a can. I wonder if my power stroke will fit in my mustang.

A very interesting race. What gets me is that they had all that TQ and no (legally allowed) traction control. As a Ferrari fan, it was nice to see the out of the box 430 do well. The guy posts on another forum i frequent and must say they did amazing considering almost no test time and no development work. The Panoz looked VERY impressive and glad they had nice reliability.

As the motto goes, and rightly so, high HP looks good but it is TQ that wins races.
Enjoy the Track,

If the Powerstroke didn't just about weigh as much as a Miata, it might be an interesting swap. Hmm, no mention in the rules about propane injection!! :lol:
