Remember seeing that car in a magazine. Bet it sounds awesome Supposedly has very little lag too. Be a bit worried about some pikey scum running off with the turbo though

YouTube - sts turbo corvette

Though to my ancient ears they do sound a little odd. A bit like a sort of flywheel ripstart toy I used to own in 1973, aged 8!

Saw that done on US series, "Rides" on sky HD a couple of years ago. They did it on some American pick up IIRC.
