    sorry, this may sound petty but i'll share it anyway. last night, i gassed up at a certain shell station and picked up a leaflet for the new ferrari scale models. i felt bad reading the first line, "The F40 can reach a top speed of 224 mph (324 km/h) and accelerates from 0-62 mph in 3.2 seconds." i've known even as a kid that the f40 does 201 mph/327 kph. the marketing person responsible for this did not do his/her simple homework.

    anyway, i'd still gas up shell and i appreciate that certain stations accept my diners card (e.g. pasay road, magallanes, mckinley).

    He-he!

    Yun din conversion ni TS sa 201 mi/hr = 327 kph....mali!

    Dapat yan 321.6 kph lang, since ang 1 mile = 1.6 km.

    201 mi/hr X 1.6 km/mi = 321.6 kph

    actually in 2006 in Bonneville salt flats Utah USA the Ferrari F40 record was rewritten to 221mph. i dont know after that if they made 224mph, but the convertion is wrong 224mph is 360.493kmh [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpI00qfYfjo"]YouTube - Ferrari F40 Top Speed[/ame]

Shell Ferrari leaflet boo-boo
