NVP66S Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 "develops 325 horsepower at 4800 RPM" reminds me of a saying when I was in high school and rode a motorcycle in 1968: "There is no substitute for cubic inches, but jumpin Jesus it hurts when you come down." Then I got back into motorcycling a few years ago and learned there is indeed a substitute for cubic inches. It's a 13,000 RPM redline and good torque the whole way there.
xcarguy Posted April 27, 2014 Author Posted April 27, 2014 . . . . . There is no substitute for cubic inches . . . . Dan, I think that was replaced somewhere along the way with "The race belongs to the guy with the cubic bucks." Speaking of cubic bucks, spotted this on Mulholland Friday; BMW i8. :svengo:
NVP66S Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) Never seen one of them before likely because they're not for sale yet. Maybe it was a press car? You can see just about anything on Mulholland. There's a guy who parks his video camera there just about every week and gets some interesting stuff. He goes by rnicky mouse. Example: That's spelled r n i c k y. Clever, huh? Edited April 28, 2014 by NVP66S

Never seen one? . . . . . I'd never even heard of one! Yep, very clever. :iagree: There was also a great looking Porsche running back and forth across the same stretch of Mulholland with the i8. I just looked it up; a 50th anniversary 911. Here's a photo I took: :cheers: Edited April 28, 2014 by xcarguy
