High speed Metro!

11-22-2007, 10:19 AM

In the new Hot Rod there is an article on Bonneville cars. One of them pictured is a white Metro that did 124mph with a Sprint 1.0L motor naturally aspirated, and 150 mph with a Whipple Charger and nitrous :shock: It's now running a GSXR1000 motor but having some issues sorting it out. It's still front wheel drive with the Gixxer motor. Any Festivas out there that can top this?

There's also a diesel truck with two blowers, & four turbos that does 228 mph.....and weighs 20,000lbs.

1986 Comp Prep SVO Mustang(1 of 83) Four cylinder turbo! (Think first Fox body "R" model!)
1995 F-150 Extra Cab and it was free!
1991 Festiva L, Surf Blue with A/C
1995 Jeep Cherokee 2wd 5 speed 4.0 and it was free!
1993 Aqua Festiva and it was cheap!
1994 Brake Swap and it was cheap!
1969 Ford F100 Big Block Ranger and it was free! (coming 2/12)
