You don't think a Thing is built for Range A-C in Real Life but has the
capability to be pushed a bit further?	I can tell you that back in my
Arty days our guns were designed for a typical charge -- but there were
allowable charges that would extend the range quite a bit.  The side
affect?  The gun would be locked backwards and have to be sent for
repairs.

Anywho my stuff was simply for racing purposes -- giving players a
chance to "turbo" about.  Redlining and all that...
