That's brilliant! Has to be one of the best first posts (links) ever.
I love this quote: "The car's top speed was about 100 km/h (75 mph). I got a lot rear-end collisions, which spun me either off the road or boosted me to 120 km/h (90 mph)."
The speedometer needle can't cope with rear-end collisions too well. The burning question I have is: how many hectares did it get on a tank of kerosene?
You are right, thanks.
The divisor is 1.6 and not 1.36 I used, which converts horsepower to kilowatts.
I should have made a vacation after that "race" .
In Le Mans, you need to have completed 70% of the distance of the winner in order to classify. Pick a car that's just barely good enough to be able to do that and give it a go! My B-spec team is doing that right now in my stock Peugeot 106 (but with racing tyres, as you can't go below that in B-spec). After 9 hours of racing they have completed roughly 65% of the distance of the leader, so for a human driver it should be doable! Right now it's raining, which slows the LMP's down much more than the Peugeot, at this very moment they're travelling at 69% of the speed of the leader
Edit: Yay! My B-spec driver overtook the Audi R10! Just temporarily though and not on the same lap, but still... that's one point for the Peugeot team!
👍
