Someone in NZ wants to play with the big boys.

attitudedesignz, Nov 14, 5:21pm

Seems someone here wants to get into the "worlds fastest street car" game.

After Larson going high 5's and Mr Frost (UK) nearing completion of RedVictor3 to get into the 5's,

RV3 was the worlds fastest street car for quite awhile until it was pulled down earlier this year in the quest for 5's

Now bare in mind RV3 is a TRUE street car, it's legal for street use in the UK. So you doubters & knockers (and there's plenty of them, especially the drag weak fanboys) find out how hard it is to get things legal in the UK before ya run ya mouth.

Sorry, back on topic.

It seems the bug has bitten a bloke called Karl here in NZ.

Will be interesting to watch progress.

I got as far as the 38 sec mark in the vid when he said "Karl wanted to make this thing big, so WE made it big for him. ".
I bet tgay that posts here could throw more money at something faster, if he wanted to.

If I put that 4000 hp motor into my VW beetle would it make it the fastest streetcar?
No.
Big motor doesn't = fastest car.
What's he mating it up with?

Tried to edit but missed time cutoff.

'Edited because although the people that are in the game call it "WORLDS FASTEST STREET CAR" it should be "worlds "quickest".

Hope that helps the people that get easily confused.'

It's going into an HQ Holden.

Hope it's going to be 'stiffer' than the Trapnell bro's one.

Not a lot of room in a (VT) manaro bay compared to a Q'y.

Have you seen the shoe horning Gup had to do to the VE to get the sonny's 727 in there.

A 670 TT won't be easy LOL.
