HOLY HELL!!!!! I wonder if the STW means Sequential Turbo...something....
seems a little insane to stick a sequential turbo kit on a 2liter 4 cylinder though... :D
Killer in any form :D :twisted:

I don't know how the driver can stand that screeching sound. That car was killing everything in it's path. Good find-

very nice vid (but a bit old, 2 years orso)

I was on the circuit of Zandvoort last weekend and it was there too,
very cool sound outside also :lol:

Yeah, that would be the ridiculously loud straight cut sequential gearbox! That video is AMAZING, some awsome driving there. Does look a little dodgey though, with the car narrowly missing a guy as he hops over the wall on the start grid!! lol
Anyone know anymore on the car in the vid, i went to the website mentioned, but i cant read dutch! lol

I've never seen it before, so thanks. :wink: In the Belgian Belcar championships the Marcos won about everything two years or so ago, and to see this 320 fly by many Marcos' :shock: Damn. Respect!

We don't see the finish, but I assume this guy won. :D

Personally, I much prefer the sound of a nice engine intake/exhaust (GT3, 360 CS, M3 CSL and the 'regular' Mac F1 to name a few) over that of meshing gears.

That was the only aspect of the BTCC which sucked. Indeed, that characteristic whine is the only feature of the McLaren F1 LM that I didn't like as well.

STW = Super Touren Wagen (Super Touring Car). In English, usually it's just ST.
