Europe's Fastest Street Legal Car is a 3rdGen

http://www.autoblog.com/2008/12/22/e...pontiac-trans/

Quote:

"Have fun with KITT," sniffed some AMG engineers when a group of Norwegians showed up at Germany's Papenburg test track with a 1987 Trans Am. The smug smiles were quickly wiped off the faces of the Mercedes tuner crew when the ancient Pontiac's practice laps were as fast as the AMG cars, and the F-Body wasn't even working hard. Once warmed up, the 8.9-liter V8 unleashed all of its 1400 horsepower on the circuit, delivering a startling 407 kph (252 mph) also known as Bugatti Veyron fast. Better still, unlike the Bug, the Pontiac's lap is official.

There's a Popular Hotrodding article with a white 92 Z28 that has a similar setup, another european guy too, but he lives in the states. I'll see if I can find the article to scan.

He ran an officially recorded 250.51mph...it looked stock on the outside, pop the hood and it's basically a tube frame Nascar job. God it's sick! :drool:
