      It seems like Boba Motoring is breaking their own record every week. We just saw this car hit 200 miles per hour as well as break into the 8's with an 8.89@165 mph run. Well, they have managed to lower their elapsed time to 8.65. This is a MKII Golf running E85 fuel on a 1.8 liter 16 valve motor. A Garrett GTX4202R compresses enough air for 900+ horsepower on this run. That power is sent through a 4 speed sequential to all four wheels. How much quicker can this thing possibly get?

      Racelogic Performance:
      0-100kmh in 2,3s
      0-200kmh in 5,4s
      100-200kmh in 3,1s
      weight: 1135kg (2502lbs) without driver

        this is the type of $#@! that makes me so proud. You wouldnt think two $#@!s about that car if you pulled up next to it at a light, and then it tears you a new ass hole and you are left in awe and at the same time cry of happines to have witnessed such a machine.

        Look at 2:42, his boost gage right in the dash, needle goes around like 3 times ROFL so much boost.
