I have but one thing to say....

Everyone is going on about making engines bigger and better. Personally, i dont give a sh|t if its 5.7, 6, 7, 10000000!!!

At the end of the day its what the engine can put out.

The Porche GT3 in production atm is a 3 litre 6, and iis expected to have close to 300Kw. Now i know that the GT3 will be worth the same as a small country, but this prooves that size doesn't matter!

And the best bit with resticting engine sizes, is they are lighter.

You get two identical cars. same tranny and everything, but with 1 difference.

One has a 4 litre 8 putting out 300Kw.
The other has a 7L 8 @ 300Kw also.

With the difference in wieght, you work out which is quicker, and which one is heavier than a tank!


Thats my two cents..... Argue away
