RE: [DML] Where's the flux capacitor?

["Nelson, Allan" <abnelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just to clarify a few points, the 1984 Corvette had 205 hp, the 1985 had
230.  The 1981 Corvette had 190 hp though.

No comparison with the 1985 190HP vette, go drive a new C5 and 
compare it to the Delorean's wimpy 130HP. I went from wimpy 130HP to 
a whopping 350HP+ with the extra stuff on my car.

Nope wont buy another Delorean.

I still love the Delorean world so I will still stay on the DML, I 
left the forums since I sold my car.
