It won't stay on the rollers long enough to determine a max hp iirc And no, he is quite literally a shit, haircut and shave away from the 11's.

said this few times before, i have van with fwd and 280hp

and a vx220 with 290hp

i had the van first and love it to bits, it get power down well when in rolling cos the map is nice and smooth,

but the vx220 is in different league for me! so so so much more traction in all areas, so for me far more of the power if used to beta effect, alot of the power in vna is only useful in 3rd and onwards, and on public roads 3rd and onwards and your breaking speed limits
