Ric thus stated: >There is one major advantage to that lower engine cover on the EV...it keeps >99% of the road dirt, water, etc. from comming into the engine I thought you were going to say that it helped streamline the bottom of the EV; hey, remember the EV GT thread? well, picture this: an EV with a smooth, seamless bottom w/ ground effects, lowered about 3" or so. Can we say vacuum cleaner? Hey, maybe they should produce, what, 500 of 'em and go racing in the WSC Touring Car championship. The Volvo 850 SW ain't got nuthin' on the EV! ;-) Norman '93 EV MV (not GT'd yet) Damon Hill 4 for 5 and counting... Lance Armstrong 3 for 6 (actually, 2.5 for 5) and counting...
