So we're talkin' burn and coast,from a top speed of 20-mph down to 3-mph,then bumping the clutch to restart the engine? On a closed course,level course,windless course,dry course,smooth course,virtually zero curve resistance?
The Geo Metro XFi and Honda VX will do (have done this at U.C.Davis,California) this under the same conditions.
Beware the 'contextual' report!
Also,consider how long that nose would last in the real world.
Here are your minimums
