It appears to me that the new Magnum engines must be making more power at
the end of the track then the pre-magnum engines, because I can get my
Shelby to 60' at 2.2's constantly on regular old tires. I must be losing
it on top end. I guess I will have to take care of this, ummm.... a 360
would be nice.
