Don't do it. It's FRENCH! It only works 4 days a week. That's why it isn't on the website.
Over there John goes by "Pascal". I hear it has water injection, but the union will only let it work half time...and the Gov't is too cheap to buy a MAF, so "Pascal" has to build chips for the idiots who think they can tape together a "kit like" performance, on the cheap.
Hmmm...The French sound a lot like 951 owners....
By the way...the specs on that thing are guarded by the Foreign Legion...so if you look at them mean enough, they will let you have them.

Thats crazy that they don't have any gaurds around the tracks - you can only imagine the 5 layers of fences and signs they'd have around that if it was in the US, and the lawsuits of the parents of some stupid kid that still climbed into the tracks and got killed.

I was thinking that in the US the biggest worry would be someone standing on the overpass and dropping something like a rock into the train as it screams by. Imagine hitting a rock at 500+ km/h - it happened in the US on a highway so it wouldn't be a stretch to imagine it being done with the train.
