Regal paid EDS to fit engines.

[SRlew]

bit off topic but, i found it ages ago on a web site, its a white nova turbo with like 600bhp or somthing and they shown it on a dyno was absolutly mental the speedo went off the cloock before you knew it, it was a foreign video. wouldnt mind seeing that again, anyone now what one im onabout and were i can find it again.

but it aint got two engines and i bet it aint as quick as the boost beast :D

cheers, lew

I've got the Dyno run of the firges nova. Runs 618bhp through 2 front wheels

The regal nova has an insane "apparent" 0-60 time of 2.63 seconds i think.

Although it's quarter mile is high 11 secs which isn't as amazing

[Gunzi]

I watched the Regal nova do a 2.83 0-60 at Trax a couple of years ago, fucking awesome, broke the silverstone record for the 0-60 run! (at that time)

I chatted to the fat german guy who was driving it on that day, sounded like a mission to get the engines running correctly!

[loggyboy]

i thought regal had bought it already converted???
wasnt all the donkey work was done in germany. - then regal just came along n took all the credit :lol:

[SRlew]

hey burgo, thatd be wicked if you could mate.

does the regal nova go to many shows or not?

Pretty much. I think Regal still maintain the car.

It came to the MK meet a couple of years back. To be fair to Regal they bought a load of goodies and we had a bit of a show and shine competition. I think a couple of people got a ride in the beast. It's impressive to see it in the flesh.

IIRC the EDS nova is owned by EDS but it is registered to Regal in the UK to get around the strict laws in Germany governing car modifications.

it still holds the record at Trax for the fastest 0-60, think it was around the time you say mate or it might have been 2.83. that was in 2003! there was an RS200 come close last year to within 0.2 of a second and they were ready to go out and battle it if he had beaten them.

[Nick]

TBH i'd like to see it run that good a time again

i've got some videos of it and it doesn't seem as quick as 2.6 or whatever
