What about that one with the Cosworth in it. That was pretty insane.

i wonder how fast it got up to.

[Bedfordcrazy]

Hey benny, if the cosworth is 600hp, thats just shy of a V8 supercar, you would think close to 200kmh, a V8 does 300 down conrod at bathurst, so taking into account the beddy is not set up for bathurst. I thought he mentioned the speed in the video, but my sound was not the greatest, could someone else make out what they said.
