Re: SPF tested at Bruntinthorpe

Road & Track, September 2006, 0-100-0, sec.'s

Corvette Z06 13.1
Viper SRT10 13.5
Ford GT 12.4


Except for the Ford, the cars are way under $100K. That's (on the surface of it) amazing performance with just a 4.7 L., as all the cars above have 5.4 (forced induction), 7.0 and 8.3 L. engines.

A 4.7 L. SPF car weighing down in the neighborhood of 2,300-2,400 lbs or less could do it, assuming the gearing was right. (Punch out the power/weight ratios.)
