I'm loading the vid now. 

But I'm still intrigued by that twin supercharged 360 Modena I read about a while back

I don't know.  I think I'm too jaded to care about a car like this.

Wasn't there an aritcle in  C&D about this?

I think the guy who did the TT GT also did a TT Gallardo.

That was a pretty sick car. But it doesnt do it for me. Now if they made a twin turbo Carrera GT I would nut myself.

You know, watching the whole thing, I've changed my mind.  Someone needs to put this in a bowl with a Veyron.

Loading it right now but watching the first few minutes already has my attention
"On a given day, a given circumstance, you think you have a limit. And you then go for this limit and you touch this limit, and you think, 'Okay, this is the limit'. And so you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further. With your mind power, your determination, your instinct, and the experience as well, you can fly very high." - Ayrton Senna

Wow a car  :rockon:.

I also reckon it is quite good marketing for the guys making the kit  :thumbsup:.

Damn nice car.

But these people seem to be real assholes!

Obviously they can't control such car, not even on a drag strip. It's hard to imagine what can possibly happen as they are pushing it through traffic as they did on the video. Such people make me sick! I hope the cops get them before they crash into a Van with a mother and two little kids!  :banghead:

I agree with you about that aspect.  If you want to push a car to the limit, then do it on a racetrack.  A public road is not the place for such shenanigans.

Straight!

I happen to have passed many people in a minivan.  :rockon:
I bought the white crap here in Maryland but a friend had one in Germany and they're limited at about 110-115mph.

My grey van doesn't have a limiter but the speedometer stops at 100mph, it's good for almost another 1000 rpms past that...  :rockon:

The guy in the video said he wanted the ultimate street car, so I guess buying a Ford GT was his first mistake.
