this is a local nova near me

First time I met him, I was doing about 80 in the outside lane of the m4, and I saw 2 headlights approaching at like WARP SPEED, quickly moved into middle lane and it shot past like I was standing still on the hard sholder!

Asked him later how quick he thought he was going and he said about 150-160 mph

It spins up a lot in 1st + 2nd gear, but once it gets moving it's gone!

285 bhp in a stripped nova!!! Silly speeds.

POST NOW INCLUDED VVVV

quote:
just had my car set up on the rollers ran a 260 bhp first 2 runs with serious wheel spin then had a bit of a play with the fueling and boost final outcome 285.8bhp and 241bhp at the wheels and 301 ftlb was very happy with that







some vids (one does say 198bhp lol wasnt a run!)

Spooky, same power and torque figures as mine, and it's black too.

It's about two thirds the length and weight though, so must be terrifying.
