Some of you may have heard that Dennis Olthoff delivered my Superformance Mk. I to Car & Driver magazine for a road test. Olthoff Racing did a superb job preparing the car – fantastic attention to detail, in keeping with their reputation.
[For background, they installed my Keith Craft all-aluminum 427w with a TWM 'nostalgia' injection system, along with the new Quaife ZFQ transmission. Olthoff's dyno numbers showed 510 hp at the rear wheels. The car has the standard width BRM wheels and AVON 295/215 tires rear/front.]
We just received the following results from Dennis, who is en route back:

When Dennis returns I should have more to report, so stay tuned.
