I prepared this article. I want your help to expand it. It would be nice to add more technical data. With respect, the son of the nomadic warriors, Deliogul 11:35, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
Does anyone else see an impossibility with this car's torque rating? I was just reading about it in Supercar Magazine and noticed a discrepancy.
12.9 liters is 780 cubic inches... evident, of course. Now, even the MOST highly tuned race car engines dont make more than 1.5 ft/lbs per in3; therefore, even assuming this was tuned as highly as the most highly tuned race engines, it would very, very doubtfully make more than 1200 ft/lbs of torque. 1297 is ludicrous. To be honest, I see the figure approaching 1000 ft/lbs, which is altogether much more realistic.

Will be upgrading this article for "practice" before moving onto others, hopefully bringing it to a higher standard, and adding references for all material. —Preceding unsigned comment added by PbZep ( talk • contribs) 05:47, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
