Picture this: You're taking your 993 Twin Turbo Porsche out on the racetrack. There's a pesky Aston-Martin up ahead, who is slower but won't let you pass. All of a sudden, you both get passed by....

I didn't know that Jake had supplied any bus motors to Germany? Now I know (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)
I thought I was the underdog passing 911 2.4s with my 914-4. That guy in the bus has me beat hands down passing a twin turbo (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) |

Just to clarify its the bus that has the twin turbo 993 motor. The guy in the Porsche is in a GT3! How the hell a VW bus and all that mass can push throw the air so quickly is the 8th wonder of the world! Here is a site with details. Now that is my dream van if I have ever seen one.
