in curiosity i wonder how fast the 905 was in a straight line, i can recall reading somewere it was doing about 220mph down the straight's, any have the trap speeds from the 1993 or 1992 qualyfying?
the peugeot 905 went 351 km/h on the mulsanne straight in 1992 in practice, but seemingley under 335 km/h in the race (i'm not sure about this second fact). in 1993 it reached 346 km/h in the race, dk about practice...
