But I still don´t compare this record with McLaren F1. The F1 is still he record to beat, this s a mutant car, even so, it was a great achivement for 9ff company.

Anybody know what they're talking about fixing under the front of the car??
And my calculations put that at 242.5 mph, even if that's a one off S, it's still REALLY fast in a car with headlights and bumpers.

Someone here shared their experience of having their car screwed up by them (by the US rep who I don't think is in biz any longer) and were screwed out of a lot of $ in the process.

Well 9ff got screwed aswell in the whole process so this bad reputation is to be overcome and left behind.

Jan spend big dollars on is tuning company 9ff. The guy deserves respect for what he did.

My 0.02 cents

Tyson, I think that is an 99-01 C2 with the new style headlights. The instrument cluster is from an 99-01.

I think that they have a undertray on the car to help aerodynamics.
It could be a first generation GT3.

It´s the lip from the front spoiler, it was causing some vibration at high speed.

Yes, they finally stepped up after ENORMOUS time and effort by the customer who I think ate all the labor.
