If its the red one your still on about it wont be on any TA pics, I was speaking to the owner on sunday and he said hes hoping to run it in the last round of the year, although he does want to race it against a full on track ibiza pushing around 600bhp

Wouldnt take a car like that out on the street and risk loosing my license or smashing up the car.

The car pictured is 440 bhp, was talking to him on sunday. It ran 15's 1/4 mile on sunday. He said it wasn't set up propperly & it needs bigger injectors. Was really dissapointed with it's performance on the day considering he was hamming it up abit.
