What was nice to see is the actual weight of each car, their Hp/Torque and how they perform in the real world.

Very surpising to me was the fact that one car was heads above the rest in 0-60 & 0-100mph times.

It was Tafels 1985 Bug that weighed 2000 lbs!

Engine Specs

Discplacement: 2733cc (82mm Scat crank x 103 JE p/c)
Rods: Pauter
Cam: Pauter 345 degree & Pauter 1.48:1 rockers
Heads: T4 2CU by Tafel/Becker
Valves: 47 x 40
CR: 11.8:1

Performance

Horsepower: 226 at 5900rpm
Torque: 201 ft/lbs
0-60mph: 4.49 seconds
0-100: 11.52 seconds



This was by no means the lightest car. It weighed 300lbs more then the lighest car, just had the most HP.
