being in danger to sound too righteous, like cookie said take it to the track, but on the Bruce a long time ago the stazz saw a tad over 190, on an empty stretch, however if it was legal, you wouldn't see me on the roads as much...... too many idiots doing it at once..

Opel Lotus Omega.

I have a bike that will do 300 though!
But we need a Starion out there thats capable of 300.
Can someone work out the ratio's we need for this? Im a tad busy at the sec....watching 'Beauty and the Beast' with my little bub.

Matey!
You have surprised me in your knowledge of these cars. We also had an Evolution 2 omega. These babys are just so much more advanced of what we had here in Australia at the time. Active aerodynamics....do we have that on production cars yet? This was in 1990!

I wish it was mine...........this car is a weapon. The rear wing adjusts itself depending on speed and braking. The MF1 is one of the only other cars i know that does this.

Flav there is other cars like that, not as good, most it just happens when you get to a certain speed : GTO (front and rear adjusts), Porches(most 911 have it), the new Crossfire and a few others. There are some that are real good like the new Maclaren SLR it adapts when heavy breaking is applied (see pic). Then there was the proto type Mitsubishi HSR2 it changed (1/2 the wing went up) when you turned (see other pic).
And from memory the Opel Lotus Omega had an Australian made Diff’.

I know of the carrera 2 and 4 does this but they are just a little tame flap. We did some development work on the Omega. If it has an Oz Diff it would be from Harrop as thats who we used to do nearly all of the work and Hollinger to do the box.
