I suspest that the normally aspirated engines in a f-500 would have a time breathing at that altitude the 500 MC record is held by gary hensley in a turbo honda and the 1000 production record is held by an MV Agusta with the stock fuel injection. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Aglet Racing" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Subject: [F500] A couple of questions - one OT


First the OT one, how do cars with motorcycle engines have a reverse?
My old Gold Wing had reverse, but I don't think any of the sportbike
engines do.

Second, what do you think the terminal velocity of a KBS with 494
would be?  Looking at the land speed records at Bonneville, the
Lakester K Gas class (where the car would fit) is a touch under 150
mph.  With higher gearing, do you think a Mark 5 could bust that?

Just a slow day here,
Gene near Seattle
