Brennan 0 Report post Posted November 27, 2007 its crazy huh i couldnt believe it when i read something about 80's formula one cars in 'Maximum Boost'. Im quite sure all the car companies have the ability to make engines like that, it just doesnt make business sense. Even look at the bugatti veyron, they lose so many million for each car. Good e30 converion perhaps . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
