Its a really nice car. But like all bike engined cars it sounds like its going faster than it actually is. Has anyone found any performace stats on it. Like 0-60 60-100 etc?

there is a website for it

www.stiune.no

it's 1/4 mile and 0-60 aren't good really.

but the amount of instanious power on tap , and the massive rev range must be incredible fun. It wasn't built for a strip or top speed, it was built for track use and having some fun in !

it's 200bhp IIRC

i was wrong, it's 13.5 1/4 mile and 5.5 0-60 - which isn't too bad ! lol

I don't think it was built for looks. The spoiler is there to aid downforce which is important on a completly custom track car like this.

I have the video of it, and there are small hydraulic lifters on the rear spoiler, seeing as there is one mother of a custom electronic dash/display i am inclined to believe the spoiler is electrically adjusted as the car goes (like the porsche spoiler that pops up at 40 or something)

situne are a form of automotive engineering company,there baby company situne electronics specialised in the Dash and all the cars electronics.

it doesn't matter, its a fast car so it needs the wing to keep the rear end pressed down, the spoiler will also keep the car stable i.e when cornering quickly.

Its Rwd so helps with down force for grip etc.

He says in specs its estimated times.

180km/h top speed is about 110mph, which isn't that fast.
