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

Mal/ Pete,

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

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
