Video - VW Van vs Porsche 911 on the Track!
Don't know if you guys have seen this but it's pretty impressive!
I wonder what engine is in that VW,
not forgetting the suspension mods so that a van will handle on a track at those speeds.

The Porsche driver was probably not the best driver to begin with.
I just find it hard to believe a VW van, no matter how highly modded, is capable of beating a 911 on the track.
Possible on a 1/4 mile dragstrip, but not on a track.

sorry, but it's a major repost.

If you go to www.race-taxi.ch, you can find out more about the car.
