Funny enough was just looking at these vids t'other day Dave...indeed turbo tech is great, best of all worlds, docile on the street, pump gas (low boost), and turn it up and run 8's or better etc etc.
Only downside is cost of course, too expensive for your average guy I would've thought. And its cool to do those rolling burnouts I guess if your still a boy, I guess we never grow up do we.
Will always remember doing a sponsorship thing with the 340 car parked in front of the companies shop once, was asked to do a burnout for pics when leaving,...well, did a short version of one as cars were piled up behind me on the high road, apparently the pics were just all smoke and couldn't see the car at all, must've over done it a bit, so we got out of there a bit sharpish...... I was told they called the firebrigade out after....just one memory that sticks!
