kev sharp ?? ive never heard of this what power was this and what quater times ??
if it is into the 10's its as quick as andys focus as that did high 10's 10.8 i think so must be something special as it is fully trimmed isnt it ? i couldnt see from the pics ??

Yep,used to be my car but i think he's a bit ambitious with the figures unless there's been more work done.Still miss that car though and Harvey if you're reading this i originally bought it off Tim that works for you.When that GT35 chimes in there's not much time for looking at the speedo.

what im saying is these are all fully stripped out cars doing mid 10's
that is a road car with a big engine and half decent box
if it did it then fair play !

im not gonna get in a debate over it

best thing to do is ask the previous owner and see if he did and times with it and what did it do ??

When i had the car i reckon it was about 560/570 horse but i'm sure torque was only around the 400 figure.
