Hi,
Here's my opinion on these engine things:

>>1) Engine Power = Engine Size (NPUs) ^2
>>Gas: Power = NPU^2
>>Elec: Power = (NPU^2) * .85
How about
Elec: Power = NPU^2
Gas: Power = (NPU^2) * 1.75
its more in line with vehicle speeds in RBB. It also solves Archangel's
mph problem by raising the speed of Gas engines.

>>3) Redline Speed = Cruising Speed * 2
I'd perfer Redline Speed = Cruising Speed * 3. Once again its more in line
with RBB.

>>The last thing we have to come up with is how to compute
>>acceleration. I'm at a loss here. Suggestions?
Acceleration? Why do we need acceleration for?

See Ya in Shadows,
