I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

15k? Higher than that man! A lot of teams were saying their redlines were 19k and a few others were keeping theirs confidential. These things idle at 8k btw, and even at 8k they sound lumpy like a funny car.

idle just over 5... but yeah... 18.500rpm redline for LAST years' BMW engine...

not sure what they all have now...

but uhmmm 550kg total car incl. driver (1lbs = .416 kg or something) and around 850 horsepower... you do the math... 0-60 in around 2 seconds and and 0-130 in 3 or 4 seconds...

so basically... once WE hit 60... they hit more than double that
