Speed = how far past the apex of the bend you leave the road.
Horsepower = how much of the wall you demolish
Torque = how far into the field you go before you come to a stop.
I'd love a blown engine and that looks a lovely job but I'd have to buy a chassis and build a car for it.
As I said this morning in the local engineering supplies. "I can't afford to buy cheap stuff".
Here is a pic of a blown Austin I spotted at le Puy Notre-Dame in 2019. The owner had made that rather cool tract himself, very impressive.

That car's got an alternator, Duncan. Best delete the photo straight away before anyone else notices
