The Vee isn't that fast! People don't understand the reason for having the car! It's all about noise and looks!
The vee is quite a reasonable bit faster than a 172 cup mate...
depends on the situation mate..i was following my dad in his vee with my cup (bmc,full ss exhaust with decat and grp n map) and we went round a tight corner onto a long straight, both second gear....and id be buggered if i could keep uplol!
