Bump

Just to put in a bit of local context . That's about 5 secs fastest than the Holden VF SS utes time in April this year.

That was awesome! Is his surname Musco by any chance?

Yep saw this other day off the BB.  Thing is how well Max steers and the GTA-R handles/hugs the corners, keeping up with the Porsche GT3.  If he had a little more Power, he probably could have taken the Porker !

Great drive. Given it has 216 HP, I am amazed at how sweet and tracktable this motor seems - does not sound stressed at all.
