The purpose of the post by Jeff H is that acceleration comparison between the cars is unfair because an R40 and an R68 are not created equal. They are different in concept due to their length and weight...... The TA does not and will not do drag racing tests on the Sea Beach or Brighton lines to show which car accelerates quicker. No one disputes which car does it faster! It costs money for the manpower and the TA operates on budgets!
