Sounds fair - 100 km is 60 miles (approx) I did 82 miles on 70 Litres on a track day

Thats not all though
They have only tested it up to 900bhp as apparently after that it keeps jumping off the rollers so it has infact got more than 900bhp!!

How many horses you got..... 40? 50?
The LC's got 415 and they all have to be fed - BHP is generated by irresponsibly burning fossil fuels in quantity and track days are seriously bad news for mpg
