If you check the 12/98 edition of Road & Track you will see that the T6 posts skidpad numbers that outperform the BMW 540 (.83g vs.81g). -rdo njahnopsamejanews.com wrote in message <752qm2$l18$1nopsam1.dejanews.com>... >In article <3673B886.AFE6D9B8nopsamnet.cz>, > totalnopsamnet.cz wrote: [CONTENT SNIPPED] >Complete and utter CRAP!
