Ask me that question in a month. KMP 493 still has a hole where the engine will be. Hopefully that'll change soon. In the meantime I can say how fast I've been in a Kirkham. It was track day at Miller Motorsports park two years ago or so and I was driving one of Dave's cars. It had a rev limiter in it for stupid people like me and I think it was set to redline at around 5800 or something like that. I had it floored on the front straight and in fifth gear. It had to be approaching 150. I let off the gas and the front tires re-gripped and it shuffled side to side a little as the nose came down. That's when I soiled myself. I've never returned to speeds like that again.
