5th gear, 200 mph.
Discussion
Don't know if anyone here saw 5th gear last night, but the've got a project on. They're trying to make a car go 200 mph (with a few mods), and have picked a V8 GT to do it with.
Here's a question for you though (based on last nights programme) - they kept on harping on about the gearbox being a 'weak point'. I know from my research that the box is generally regarded as being a bit nasty, but weak?
The reason I ask is they claim to have driven the car 50 miles before the gearbox "went". Is this likely?
I'm dreaming of getting an Esprit 'one day', and seeing this was a bit off-putting!
