Its not the New new one (which is quicker than the one at the Pod) if you get my drift

I'm referring to a black one, latest model I think

THATS THE ONE ABOUT A 59 PLATE CAR
THERE IS A STOCKER V A SUPERSPORTS STOCKER ON THE NET

IT WINS THE SUPERSPORTS HOLESHOT IT EASY BUT THE SKYLINE TAKES IT LONG TERM
11.91 119 MPH THE SUPERSPORTS 12.11 114MPH

BUT IS A 1,300LB WEIGHT PENALTY ON THE BENTLEY

Great car,good value for £70K,but what the F was a 4wd Jap supercar doing on the track at the Mopar Euronats?

Adam · Post by **Adam** » Mon Aug 08, 11 11:42 am

Yes, I saw it run 11.6 consistently.

Nice car , I saw 11.7s I think, do not know what boost would be, not sure why it was among Mopars, still I suppose its still a rwyb .

If some do not agree with NOS, where does one stand with turbo or supercharging?

I like the idea of the latter

I saw it too, those cars are very fast , I rode in a white one over here on a road course..........and if you think that thing is fast on the 1/4 well...............I ALMOST LOST MY COOKIES A FEW TIMES IN THE CORNERS.

Just insane power and traction
