Noted, sorry for the confusion.

I agree, they'd do little more than grenade on a normal road, under less-than-optimal circumstances. It's still nice to see the engineering minds at work though, especially given the projects and given the information/knowledge that they take with them when they leave the competition.

I think that's the biggest gain, not the 3k Mile FE *mis*representation.
