Yes. I've seen that page.
I was wondering if anybody has themselves tried a run and how easy it was to get the figure specified.
I will soon.
Thanks for the reply.

Maybe the roads...
I have stock 225 50 17 tires all around. Not that I'm an expert, but your 275s should pose even more of a torque challenge. Do you have the M54 engine?
