This isn't just a dig against Cossies, but it was its own bad luck being paired on the start line against the sky-blue peril

I know this car can kick some serious butt over the 1/4 mile

yeah i have seen this car too at the pod, proper little rapid car. Cant remember if it beat an impreza, I saw it up against an sti,( think the sti was catching right up with it at the end?*facts needed lol*) the blue thing got a good start just like in the video. He did have a much better reaction time of nearly .5 of a second in the video. Think it had a big engine or something in it, was mentioned on here b4.

Twisties? lol

Don't care if it beat the Cossie or not, if I had to choose which one I'd drive home in it would be no contest.
It could be the fastest thing on the planet, but it still looks like a piece of S41T

Fantastic that thing leaps off the line. I remember the last thread with pictures of it on here last month or so. It's a toyota starlet isn't it?

Toyota Starlet 2 litre pinto I think. If you thought that was good, there was a fiat 126 over here with a midmounted kawasaki turbo bike engine in it that turned out sub 13 second times!! If I see it run this summer I'll post up the vids, although the owner passed away some time ago and I don't know where it's gone to.

I remember the first couple of times I went to Crail, there was a BMW bubble car thingy with a Hyabusa engine in it. You watched that go up the strip peeking between your fingers
