24 hours of Lemans
Audi won and Peugot was second.
The top 6 were turbo diesels. I noticed that even under hard acceleration that they barely smoked and even when they did, it wasn't for long nor black.
Why aren't a detuned version of these available??
Actually I'm really dissapointed as I was promissed flying cars by now.

The US market has never supported it. Merc's have had turbo diesels for their cars for years, as have Volkswagen.

Yup I think the US is finially getting where more people are accepting these. Mostly because of the mileage. It truly amazes me that diesels have advanced so far in the last 2 years or so. After spending the previous time not changeing much from the same basic workings.
