I recently found "Tremek" http://www.tremek.com/forum/index.php? its a place of nothing but car vids..I have seen a couple other reports from that guy thats driving it...we need to figure out how to get that show.... Must be in Britain??.....they really push the cars and seem to honestly rate them on that pole thing he puts the cars time on....cracks me up they refer to the trunk as the boot...

Well worth the wait to download. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif
Along with calling the front compartment a "boot", they also call them a "bonnet" when it is an engine cover.

sixtiesmuscle...must be as the one I saw had the red air intake..and he had a red full face motorcycle helmet to match...we live by the lake and the closer you get to the water the Big Dogs places get more common...I kind'a guessed that was where it was as the car was heading up the hill from the water....pretty wild to have one around here somewhere...

That used one was out your way.If I remember right it had 275hp and they weigh what 800#? I am not sure how practical it would be but man, what a bang for the buck ride.
