The boss at work has a M5 and one of the Engineers has an M3. When they both pull out of the office car park one after the other and push the foot to the floor - it's amazing... :D

My R100 is crazy. Haven't been able to put the power to the ground yet.
Ran a 12.2 at heathcote full street trim, crap tyres, basically wheelspin first (waste of time taking off in first)
wheelspin second, wheelspin third, traction in fourth and fifth.

Heaps of fun drifting it but would pull some serious g's with traction.

Finally got some good rubber on the back toyo semi slicks.
I'm hoping for a high 10 second pass.

240 kw at the wheels weighs about 900kg.


sounds like you need some slicks or mini tubs to get the power to the ground. A 12.2 second car that wheel spins most of the way up the quarter would be a scary ride!

I really wanted to put a WRX engine in my beetle about 14 years ago. if it wasn't for the cost, i think i would have done it.


I've just chucked on some semi slicks now so should stick a bit better.
Yeah was pretty scary down the quarter, it's a real short wheelbase as well gotta be super quick, the whole car felt so light at 200+k's per hr.
I never really bothered with slicks, it's not a drag car, straight line's pretty boring, just wanted to see what it could do 8)

I've seen a few wrx beetle conversions, beetles are super light, would be pretty cool!

Have owned a couple of big powered street cars, around 280kw s13 and r32 :( miss that car.
Fastest thing have ever driven was a mates 387rwkw FD rx7. Thing was mental. Turbo lag made it. Massive handful to control.
That was going back about 6 years too lol

Well both my cousins have 10 second rotaries but nothing felt like the power my next door neighbours 2004 WRX STi makes on the road... This thing is so freaking savage... The thing has upgraded cai, fmic, turbo, exhaust, injectors, fuel pump e85 tune and it made 316kw at all four wheels on an unopened donk! Unfortunately all good things eventually come to an end and he spun a bottom end bearing last week due to leaning out...

Now thats car porn right there...... 8)

Never driven anything more than warm. I started and spent my dollars on 4wd's..... so the 2006 Mazda 3MPS I had would be the fastest. But then, I only got the Lib GT on Thursday so haven't had a quiet stretch of road yet.

The MPS was evil as a FWD trying to get the power down, talk about wheel spin and axle tramp when given curry with traction control off.....

For when 700hp is barely enough to get you down to the shops to get Bread & Milk.

You really need to Twin Turbo your brand new Lamborghini Aventador

Is that a terrible mangled remix of no quarter for the music in the r8 vid.
I've heard a number of terrible zeppelin remixes/covers/samples/whatever lately.

Just drove a mates new VW Scirocco R. He traded in his Golf R32 for it.
I thought he was mad.
But it's definitely quicker and not bad for a front wheel drive car. Sounds pretty nice as it gets moving too.

Yeah, I had an 85 Mazda 323, which is basically the same thing. 5 speeds and everything.
You don't see underground racing modding those because it would be too insane.

a few of us took it out one day and revved it a tad to hard, the car cut out and stopped.
my mate who owns the car shat himself, he thought he was up for a new car.
