No he didnt beat me but any nova thats only 8 or so car lenghts behind @ 150mph deserves respect and only when i pulled passed 160 did i really lose him.
If you got nothing constructive to say... dont bother

Yes, a turbo'd Nova will do 150mph, with a 6 speed box fitted could even get close to 160mph. (Although it would take a braver man than me to do it!!!)
I think i know the previous owner of this car, has had a lot of money spent on it.
Was a Vauxhall show this weekend in Northampton (Billing Aquadrome), was was probably something to do with that

Frayz, I'm not going to comment on your actions, except to say it's not big, and it's really not clever
As for the Nova, I struggle to see why anyone would spend loads of money on one of the stupid little cars, why not buy a proper fast car in the first place?

You need to get a life. If seeing this post makes your face like this -----> then you have personal issues that need to be addressed before you have a heart attack from the stress you`re obviously under

Martin. Is your car standard? If not, then what's the point of you spending your money on it when you could go and buy something faster in the 1st place! 
Sorry, but if you want to modify your car then bollox to it and do it. Wouldn't life be boring if we all drove around in standard scoobies
BUT, the speeding is a bit naughty frayz
But then everyone of us has never sped around any where!!............ Have we
