It's a Swedish car. Don't know any of the specifications on it but found this video of it as well.

Sounds and looks properly fast. The best sounding Cosworth on Youtube so far?

Vid says it's running an R&D Dogbox, hence the awesome sounding gear changes

Just saw this thread.

Its my car, from sweden as mentioned.
Gloves are dirtbike ones, theyre cheap and suede in palms= easy on the steering wheel...

About the rev gauge, what about it?
Nice to hear you like my car/starts (with lower boost than racesetup). Thanks alot.

Bit more info: http://www.garaget.org/?car=94116 In Swedish, but you'll get the idea.

Cheers.

About 400-450bhp on the street i think. Little more at race.
