    Victor Red 1

    The Victor Red 1, an old Vauxhall Victor which claims to be the worlds fastest street car (street legal and all). And i don't think there are many road cars i've heard of with an engine that has more litres than it does cylinders!

    Heres a couple of figures:
    2200hp
    0-60mph in 1sec
    1/4 mile in 7.8sec

    From the Fifth Gear tv show, not sure which episode or season.

    Thats mad! Bit of an inspiration for me, although I wouldnt mod a car THAT much. A zed would definitely end up costing the same over that period of time :p

    5 miles per gallon it said (normal driving I think)

    But what is the point of having something so fast, that you have to spend hours checking over the engine after each use??
