It is a "disgustingly" quick car.. but that is ridiculous

the Pikes Peak International Hillclimb is the second oldest autorace in the US. The starting line is at an altitude of 9,400 feet, with the finish at 14,110 feet; a vertical rise of almost 5000 feet.

That is some height and I bet it will test the air mixture ratio

I wonder what parameters the software uses to come to that conclusion.

No smut as far as I can see.

Yes Ok where I live as I'm well away from the troubles, Approx 10 miles via roads but 5 miles as the crow flies across the River Mersey.

The area is the lower priced housing market area of Merseyside.

Just listening to the local news and the damage done.

Nutters all of them. 
Seems it just kids who are currently on school holiday so not much to do but cause havoc.

Bit from local news site:

That is the bit I found on Google.. I scanned it several times for any mention of Wirrel..

The Skelta is a great car, developed and built by former Qld Rally Champion, Ray Vandersee from Toowoomba.
I had a good talk to him a year or so back at the Noosa Hillclimb. The car is a rocketship. Will watch with interest.
Also on th esame page I found a link to a story on Molly Taylor driving in the Rally of Finland.
Molly is the daughter of multiple ARC winning co-driver, Coral Taylor and her husband Mark Taylor (not THE Mark Taylor). Apparently there's a class in which the competitors all drive Fiesta R2 cars, called "Academy Class".
