That's pretty amazing. My old Ford Escort never looked or performed like that. What's up with that one headlight, though?

Put this in a head-to-head with Rod's and I bet you'll find it doesn't have the power claimed.

Don't agree with that. I think those BHP figures are bullshit.
Julian Godfrey works together with Jenspeed so I think you under estimate the knowledge of the uk tuners.

I think that they have some fairly generous dyno's over there given the number of "1000+" hp cars they seem to have......

I'm sure its still quicker than anything I'll own, but hate videos with shit tunes over the top - I just wanna hear the car!

Or if you have gone to the trouble of screwing 1k hp out of the engine and making it roadworthy rewire that one so the inner light works as the headlight................

That, and driving at times with the lights off completely? Nice car, prick owner. Drive with your lights off and you deserve to get plowed into.

Fairplay it makes a shit load of peak power but nothing till 6k rpm? I reckon a well set up t34 car would give that a good run for its money on the street, drag strip would obv be very different.

I'm not saying it is the same car....but I assume it is. There cant be too many making that sort of power.


Except perhaps in Malta....those monsters must be making SERIOUS power

Hi to all...
This car have been tuned here in Greece...by extreme tuners...
This is a beast and I can assure you that it is producing 1120 whp...
This is a dragster car and it is a real gun...
As for the tuners here in Greece... There are lots of mechanics that even know how cosworth engine seems like...but they have declared themselfs TUNERS and I am very sad about that...But we also have some extremely good tuners that have spent a lot of hours on Cosworth tuning and I feel very very proud of them...
I dont believe that greek tuners will be better than your top tuners but they can compete yours and make tought cars...

If Mark supplied me with a graph like that I would shoot him .

As stated, I dont know if that graph is from the same car, Im just assuming it is similar.. 8's are debatable, as that takes a lot of traction and other things etc.

The time might be debatable but the terminal speed should still indicate the power its making
