TeamKrazy, here in the UK i have seen a few SuperBoss's around but they are not as well known in SA. Here the big boys are Ford Costworths etc which is what we don't have in SA......

Hey Guys..

The "Superboss" is a bit of a legend here in Sunny SA. They are Delta(Opel) SA's motorsport version of the 20l 16v kadetts that we used to have here(1991-1992) - a homologation special for our 'Group N' racing class. Those things were bloody fast even in today's terms - 0-100km/h in 7.64s standard.... and I hear that was a conservative estimate. I've seen them stick with a new-spec Astra coupe turbo on the 1/4 mile.

Incidently I've personally seen them outrun many a VR6 too.
So what this means in layman's terms is that the Teamkrazy corsa is scary quick. :)

Krazy - I can arrange a race for you if you want... Bro has a CD 16v that is very similar in perf..
Will think 'bou you offer..

it is running so well at the moment and is super quick, beats superboss's and runs side by side with a vr6.

Hmm, more than 50-60bhp jets of N2O will put a lot of pressure on the engines inners. You will need uprated pistons, conrods and a gas-flowed head for starters. Also uprated brakes to slow you down quicker would help!
