Hi John. Thanks for the compliments. Being considered cracked by your girlfriend is a compliment indeed. I made the car because it had to be restored from the frame up, and I like to make strange things. The car's top speed is limited to 108mph as it sits right now. At that speed, the rear engine will self-destruct. Acceleration however, will be pretty good for a street car, topping out at .7g - .8g. all the way up to 30mph, which it should reach in less than 2 seconds. It should hit 60mph in about 4.7 seconds. The car is geared very low, but is also very heavy, about 1900 kg with the driver.
