I can clearly remember in the traffic light grand prixs that I never had to go above 2,000 rpm in any gear to make the cars around me become small dots in the rear view mirror.


This low drag thing. Volvo estate cars started to compete in the saloon car racing but I think they were banned because they had a great advantage due to the much smaller drag co-efficient. It was because their rear end was flat.--
