Larry,
I used round numbers only for illustrative purposes, but I think 250 HP at
the flywheel would suffice. For comparison, consider that the "Bluebird" did
just over 150 mph with a 350 HP V12, and I don't think its aerodynamics were
any better than a Tiger's, probably worse and more frontal area to boot.
