Ok, here's a wee game for you....

Try to guess which street legal car made 0-100 at Millbrook in just 6.9 seconds.

reply with your guess before you look at the following URL (otherwise it's a pointless exercise)

Very nice motor.

What's good to see is that it's interior doesn't look like that of drag car.

So often you hear of such cars only to find theyre just shells of the original.

Yep - that's a quick one allright.

Looks a top car !

What makes me chuckle is that in the UK, the term "Lemon" also means a dud or poorly-made car...

Maybe if enough people in the UK see this, the term "Lemon" may be changed forever.

Thanks

Nice to see the car is still being developed and used regularly

I have noticed there are no terminal speeds on the 1/4 mile figures, and no units for the torque. Might be an idea to get these included as well to give people an idea of how much of a beast this machine really is

There was a report on this car in Banzai the month before last, the geezer that owns it has lots of other stuff including a racing 360 fizzer.

Lucky Bar Steward.
