16V vs BEAMS

[roman]

Dont get me wrong I love beams engines.

My car, gets between 7-8l per 100kms, has a trap speed for high 13s (99.7mph), and enough power to spin up first and second gear with very little provocation.
It's going faster at the racetrack than I ever would have thought, and it's still on road tyres.

Banging through the gears and staying above 6000rpm on shifts is awesome. So much fun.

We've got lots of windy backroads here too, beams motor definitely does not feel short on torque in a ~1000kg car.
