    That IS really cool. 220KPH. By the sounds of it, they were sure having a good time. It looks like a really clean install too. I'd like to see more of the car.

    By the way, it does take a long time to download, even on DSL.

      Yeah I've found that some people have fast links to my server and some don't.. unfortunately it's located in Newfoundland Canada... so it's not exactly central to most peopl.. I live in Ontario and have DSL and it's fast.. but when I go to school and use their broadband to my site it's pretty slow... I dunno It's free so I won't complain :)

      Yeah the sure sounded like they had a good time.. i wonder what mods they have done to the suspension etc... i wouldn't want to do 220 kmh with half ass brakes and floaty suspension thats for sure :)

    Love that sound, and a neat video. Only word of commentary I actually understood: "Yeeehaaa!!". Must be universal or something.

    At 220kph, windshield wipers are probably unnecessary, they just flex from aerodynamic pressure and distract the driver and videographer.

    Do you think anyone will be fooled by the little B18 oil filler cap?

      I highly doubt it :) Old cars with (Semi)modern turbo engines are wicked.. definately not the sound you would expect to hear from a car made in the 60's

    I wouldn't recommend this for dialup modems...17 MEGS and still downloading!
