Oh I forgot about that sentence.... "330kph" and "1999" were too eye catching.

Even 330km/h is eye catching

You got my attention... McLaren F1? CLK-GTR? 911 GT1? XJ220?

I obviously didn't get enough of your attention.... read it again...Four door sedan

It was one of these:

fitted with two large-ish turbochargers, sequential gearbox and a lot of chassis work... Used to own it once upon a time.

Now that was unexpected, I've never heard of one of those puppies moving so well!

i should have made "i'm insane" a seperate option/tickbox....
+ respect. i'd hardly nudge that in a car.. 140 is about my top on gravel (~70 on long straights on a bike)

I grew up riding/driving on gravel. I also had one of the earlier (85) KTM 250 MXC's that was capable of around 100mph (160k) off road. A small bit of insanity does help tho....

Even a brick with 580kw will move well. I guess the fact that the jappa scene wasn't big in Europe in those days doesn't mean we didn't build interesting cars. It was a total sleeper as well. Just a minimalistic functional bodykit and on the outside and a slightly longer shift lever to give it away. Used to spank unsuspecting exotic owners with it...

The jappa scene has a limp wrist anyway.
I like the idea of it, if I remember correctly they had a very low .Cd from factory? Something like .28 or .29?

Not sure about the .Cd, but most Audis of that era were a little bit more slippery than other cars. I wouldn't go anywhere near that brand now. Wouldn't want to be associated with the type of person that drives them nowadays. They seem to have become the psychopaths' car of choice.

Speaking of insanity, Classic_Z is currently building a street legal VW Polo with a mid- mounted Audi 4.2 lt V8...

I'll take one of them, thanks.

Oh, and a turbo Z1300 with ZX12 wheels, the rear " adapted" to take the shaft drive; Skyline fuel injection, altered rake...Minimum 200hp he reckons...

That's be okay to get the shopping on?

Not shopping locally though ... where would be the fun in that ...

I think either would make any trip fun!

Getting milk from the other end of the island! Imagine the noise it's make
Skyline F/I though...I expect it's just RB series injectors running off a PCM or MicroSquirt/MegaSquirt system.
