Re: [DMCForum] Re: Twin engine Delorean website is up to date.



OOH, better watch what you say, Rick.  I'm getting antsy.  Almost feel
like I could be a contender.  My 0-60 is around 4.8, and a test I ran
with a GTECH put the acceleration at .85g.  

We may have a showdown at pigeon forge after all; pitting 2.0 liters of
rice against 10.2 liters might prove to be a good show.  

I think we should sell tickets.  

Jim
