Top speed - I reckon she'll make .5 past lightspeed and do the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs. But what's the consenus on Sublight velocity?

Max Power @ RPM - I'm sure there's some figures in the Bently manual, but I also recall some debate on here about it. I just can't find the thread it was in! Can anyone remember so I can go and refresh my memory?


It's a parsec a measure of distance rather speed... I digress what ever you put down as max speed make sure it's lower than your tyre speed rating. I think I put down 120 Tyres were rate 130

Weight wise it's worth putting more at the back to be sure as I failed on hat first time
