Yeah when i saw it, was doing about 2mph being pushed, so in the answer to your question, not very quick lol

Suppose 300 lbs of torque has got to brake something, Matt.

Dear me. What happened to it? Was it the BB one featured in MP?

 

[aaronc]

Not great publicity really!

 

[Bryan]

mikey - yeah it was the one featured in maxy poo





aaronc - the good publicity came from the way it was flying up and down the strip, the quickest ive seen so far

No surprizes there then. But i guess i would have expected there demo to have an uprated gearbox to run massive boost.

Thats a problem with every highly modded turbo car though.
