That car is almost the perfect definition of a sleeper.

I was at the VMAX a couple of years ago where 9FF first showed up with a 996 convertible, and apart from the suspiciously fruity engine noise, there's very little evidence from the outside about what's lurking underneath the bonnet (boot?).

I was told that the blue 9FF car crashed at the end of the day whilst it was being driven by the owner of 9FF and he was airlifted to hospital.

Car was the blue one that was a one off and was totally trashed.

I think it was this one . . .

I'm not sure about airlifted... over on PH in the VMAX forum, Craig said that Jan (the guy who was injured) came back to Bruntingthorpe later on, and they also said the damage was not as bad as it looked.

Indeed, getting up to 220+ in 1.5 miles is rapido. I'm fairly sure the eventual top speed is far higher with the right gearing!

Impressive, but how driveable is that thing with 1000+ BHP?

Amazing! Would rather this though...
