  • insane.

  • @skynet0912 it was lars ulrich from led zaplin who was talking, he was a banger of butter bean muffets

  • My pleasure. :)

  • That's pretty damn fast. Thanks for the information.

  • Source for the 416 kmh claim byt the W.M Peugeot P87 is "Super Sports: the 220mph Le Mans Cars" p.173. The run was done by François Migault on an unopened section of road between St Quentin and Rheims. The speed was established by Police radar in full view of the press. A facsimile of a newspaper article is included in the book (it was 416 and not 415 - my mistake).

  • You may be interested in a site called Racing Sports Cars. It has an excellent photographic record of Le Mans cars. You can probably find evidence of the taped grills there. I don't know about it.

    I do know that the radiator exits were channeled towards the rear of the car rather than in front of the windscreen like on say, a Sauber or Jag.

    Incidentally, that Peugeot was tested on a stretch of closed highway in France and they managed to get 258mph (415kmh) out of it.

  • @LordJesseD

    Agree totally. The Peugeot was only really built for one purpose. It was rubbish in the Porsche Curves!
