Lots of top end due to the short runners.

That is of course assuming it doesn't suck in small rodents.

What's the story on that 928 powered GTR with the tube frame chassis? I saw images of it a long time ago [I forget who posted them here] but never heard anything since. <img src="confused.gif" border="0">
