this Calibra from the UK won some sort of competition in the US, for being the "fastest" road legal car in the world, but apparently if you look into some of the competition rules its not as it seems, as it excludes certain "faster" cars.
...still VERY fast though!! and its a Vauxhall!! (same family of Opel)
pascal1109 kirjoitti:think the Vauxhall Victor (Opel Kadett) from the uk is the fastest road legal car this baby has 2200 bhp
The Vauxhall Victor is a model of it's own, not a "sister model" of Opel Kadett. The Victor is also bigger than Kadett, about the size of an Opel Rekord. One of the last "true Vauxhalls" before the models were unified with Opel.
And Andy's Vauxhall Victor IS a very cool car. Andy even visited the Opel Club Finland christmas party in 2006 (unfortunately without the car... ) and he's a great guy.
The Victor has been featured also on dvd's and tv shows like Fifth Gear.
Red Victor 2 will be trying to beat its Rekord at this years PV Show at Santa Pod (8th June 2008). So if you want to see it in action and maybe have a holiday in UK at the same time, this will be a great opportunity, see below for more details. Unfortunately I've already booked to go to England in May, otherwise i would definately be going.
