Two years ago I made this video of my friend Patriks Turbo fastback. Patrik had decided to sell it, so I said I was going to make a video that sold it easier. We drove to a small public road and I cramped my body in the non existing backseat and I told him to drive. I thought he was going to just make a normal drive but then he put the right side pedal to the metal and gave it max... As I filmed with sound I couldn't scream, it would have ruined the movie. When we calculated from rpm and gearing after the photo shoot we saw the speed on the small road was.... 230 km/hour (140+ mph). If I would do it again? Nope...

That looks like a lot of fun! I've been thinking about installing a WRX engine into my '62 bug.
