I recently just had my fastest experience in a car. Its my friends 1969 Chevelle loaded w/ a brand new 540 big block. I dont know what else it has in it but hes always has some tricks up his sleeve. I cant even tell you how much power its pushing out but I went to the strip with him once and he came off of the line from idle, punched it and ripped sideways, smoked them almost through the 1/8th and ran mid 11's. And to top it off, its all street legal and its his DAILY DRIVER! Now thats sick.

Post them.... I'm almost positive TVR doesnt make a v8 with those specs/performance...

The only thing i know from them is the Speed 12, and it was never produced.

Fastest car I've ever been in was a yellow '98 Mustang GT, supercharged. Sad, I know, but it was pretty fast.

Fastest street car I rode is a '94 Cobra that dynoed 750+ rwhp @ 7500rpm (small ford s/c). It ran 135+ in the quarter mile and is daily driven. Fastest car outright I rode (and drove)...would be my camaro that runs 155mph in the qtr (small chevy s/c).

I'm thinking that's a kit car too. Pretty sweet though. Not too many people actually FINISH a kit car when they start one. I know someone who bought a lightweight feaux Lambo body and is doing a full STI swap hah. AWD and all.
