An old 30 year old Touring car Racing Jaguar with a 5.7 Litre bored out engine, and four exhaust pipes each as big as a two litre bottle diametre.
My mate fitted a spare seat in the roll caged car and the 150 mile fuel tank and my shoes melted on the foot well due to the engine touching it.
When we pulled up at a village on the outskirts of Lemans all the Lambo drivers, Maclaren drivers (and that cars sounds wonderful at speed) 1927 Pole position Bentley driver all came out and wondered what we were in as they could hear us over half a mile away. The noise was superb!!!!
Also we blew a 355 ferrari away from standstill in a car that weighs a hell of a lot more, and the ferrari drivers face was a picture.
