Are you sure about that Dave? :-)

Almost all European top comp teams are running petrol V8 :-)

The new ORA eurofighter is powered by a 2.5 v6 with 165 bhp. Finished 4th in the recent King of Portugal.

I like the torque of a diesel. But would choose a petrol v6 any day for offroading.

Diesels generally have more low end torque and as you say deal with water alot better BUT and its a big but you cant beat the sound of a thundering v8 B)
