Unbelievable is this!
When you say 480+ bhp...how much extra could there be on top of this? Are we talking mid 500's?

yeah easy mate, i no of 2 cars pushing the limits of the high 500hp region

 

[Iridium]

Is it useable with that much through the front wheels? Surely it spins up in top hehe

So you car isn't the fastest clio about then is it? I thought this would have easily been the fastest. Absolutely unbelievable, amazing work though.

 

[mini-valver]

[RickyP]

I know that but it is a clio shell!. Okay is this the fastest Clio look a like car?..Is there any clio looking shelled car that is faster?

 

[caeteez]

Surely this thing could top 160mph rofl? Cant imagine it would be too stable mind?

 

[cat171]

^
I think Matt Black (previous owner of the car) saw over 170 out of it before !

 

[mini-valver]

200mph on a RR!!

Yeah but the other cars pulling 500+bhp are using this engine. S3, TT etc

[dandycaptain]

Bloody hell, this is an amazing project. I'd like to see how long your tyres last though lol. I reckon I'd like to see some vids too, it must be an abosulte monster on the road.

 

[ddouble]

that is awesome, love the steel rims look, gonna be giving a few dropped jaws!!!

 

[MATT BLACK]

On the road there's not a lot of machinery that will touch this car.

I had countless meetings with alsorts of exotic machinery from skylines to ferrari's ( including one very embarrased FQ400 owner that lives near me ) the power of the car is stupid.

To see the owners expression of a 911 porsche as your powering past him at 150 mph is priceless - worth every penny

 

[Timmay]

vroom!

some more vids - sorry to hijack your post dude but ive got bloody loads of videos and pics people havent seen before

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6790515754062032468

Caught it when the wheels gripped and overtook it before the finish line - traction at start was terrible at elvington !!

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-137536193073116337

same with this but went past him like a rocket

Qtr mile strip at FCS Elvington was the worst track ive ever raced on - normally the clio is good for 1.8 / 1.9 60 foot times

 

[Paul.]
