Well, considering this is not an SCC forum..., but a cal-look forum ;-)

I kinda like the idea though

Yes a bottle Smiley but it drives every where on its wheels - ROAD wheels Cheesy trips from Man to Santa Pod on its own or to York Raceway also bbq in side and big pile of doves and other camping stuff Cheesy and still makes over 35 MPG Smiley with 85 MPH on the road Cheesy and it’s quite comfortable too Cheesy.
I remember when we drove it once on the M5 (I think) me with the laptop on the knees looking at the software of ECU when Paul levered it... when he put 4th and I've seen 7,5 kRPMs I knew that’s wrong... over 125 MPH... In F*** brick with wheels...

I'm noy mad on buses either, but agree, they're as much to do with cal-lookers as about 50% of the cars on here... would be cool to see a top 10 of quick buses!

Allthough this is a cal-look forum, we do also have a pure racing section and a big guns list... So we are obviously not 100% within "the limits" already.
That said.. you guys already have multiple lists on the UAC? So why hold two equal lists?

Whats the UAC?

The UAC stands for Ultimate Aircooled.com

Were about 1 yr old and still growing.

And we have many Top Ten lists which include the Top Ten quickest buses in the world!

A different pan, maybe type 1, and then change the body to a nice early sixties ragtop Bug. No Chrome, nose down stance and a hot engine.
