Phase 3.5 as far as i remember. Probably about 320bhp odd... That 1/4 mile was still in the 13's as well.
Rarris have an on-board computer which makes sitting at revs on a 1/4 mile startline very hard, as when you engadge 1st, the revs drop and you loose everything off the line.
Seen it quite a few times at Santa Pod, Rarris getting whooped by skylines etc.. Rarris dont launch of 1/4 miles...
But then they wern't made to do 1/4 mile.
Still, always good to see a shopping trolly do well.
And im sure that vid is like 2001/2 region. Been doing the rounds for years now.

Just my opinion. Fair enough if your hobby is tuning cars to see how fast they can do it in. The nova is obviously a nice piece of kit. Just can't see why you would take your ferrari there if you had one, people are jelous, if you won you would just look like a giant twat in a ferrari showing off, if you lose you get laughed at and pointed at as a twat in a ferrari who just got beat by a nova.
You wouldn't take the ferrari on a rally day and start pitting it against rally set-up citroen xsara's etc. Just my view on it, probably just thinking it to it too much, i'll now stfu.

Most of the 6sec+ models are pre 80's and were considered fast for the time though. Especially when compared to other cars.
