It's just not every day you see a car that is 100% properly done. No corners cut.
It's potentially a 9 second street car that is not just fast in a straight line but also in the corners.
It's best time last year was 10.85 on street tires, however back then it only made 500hp. It'll be fun to see what it does on the track with 800-900hp

I was in England over the weekend, went to an event called Ten Of The Best on the Elvington air field in Yorkshire.
The scooby was there and doing great. It ran a best of 9.93 at 143mph, backed up by 9.97 at 143mph. Second best time of the event. Running 2.2 bar boost and 150hp shot of nitrous on 2nd gear and upwards.
First manual transmission scooby ever to hit 9 seconds. There's still room for improvement, this was the first time they were testing it on dry with the new setup.
The owner lives in Iceland but the car travels between Iceland and the UK frequently.
