But is probably has more HP than real 959...i peaked under it's hood. It's 930 with 959 body kit. Engine is bored-out 3.6 liters with double superchargers and no I/C. He couldn't get a grip worth a dime...did some very lousy 14 sec times with very high ending speed.

Outrageous part was VW-golf with 590HP and 4WD, sequencial gearbox, slicks, Audi 5-cylinder engine , superbig turbo boosting around 2.0 bar and carbon fibre body...weight around 900kg...couldn't get a grip at all despite 4WD...it just bounced around in first 60 foot and then rocketed away sounding like a jet. 210 km/h end speed....outrageus! He did 10.70 sec , not 9.X as i said before...sorry...got mixed up.

Then all weird things like soccer-mom green volvo 240's with bigblock V8's, Volvo 4-cylindre 2.3L turbocharged dragsters and old Saab 99 with 16V turbo engine in it...i'll dig up videos soon...
