Weight is an important factor and although my car is road legal I would certainly not take it on a long trip without hearing protection. Top speed I would estimate at about 130-5mph as aerodynamics are still a deciding factor here. I would estimate the 0-60 of about 6.5 to 7 secs and a 0- 100mph of just under 20 secs (0 to 92.5mph in 14.8secs). Fun but noisy... and an Audi 1.8T would beat me from 100mph onward I would say. I beat my friends Alfa 156 (2.5 V6 24V 6 speed) down the drag strip but he was doing the same top speed so must have been accelerating faster at the end of the run.
