That`s one interesting burn out area with people standing 1 meter away from the car. Nice video though, it looks like he is on a sunday drive because he looks sooooo relaxed. Almost like he should have the stereo on playing a nice tune... but that would have ruined the beatiful engine noise.

I like this one as well, to bad is over so fast! http://fvwa.sitefactory.fi/data/7.avi BTW, this guy is nr one on our list over the fastest lookers! 

Best rgs

Phat sound!! But what about the t-shirt and missing gloves? Don't they care about safety in France?

Trés coool!! 8)

I've had this clip sitting on my PC for quite some time, and it is one of my favourite inspirational ACVWs clip, one that I love to show friends whom are totally unaware of souped-up VWs!! They just sit in awe when I've played the clip, wondering "what kind of engine is that??"....

Thanks for sharing the emotions Cedric!!

The sound, the revving engine, the burnout, the way it launches... and the relaxed driver!  ;)

The ending of the run, is, hmm, how should i put it, interesting at least... high speed manouvering, reminding of the famous swedish "elk-test". ;D

Any more details of the car perhaps?

A toute a l'heure!  :)
