Awesome video! Any more? Was that thing supercharged? Also I don't suppose it's still around in a barn somewhere?

Re: epic volvos?
That my friend, is the sound of a straight cut gearbox. 
No competition car is complete until a straight cut, close ratio gearbox is fitted to it. Theres no emotion on the smilies that can punctuate the feeling of the sound of it;whining away,while the roar,of a growling engine, sucking in as much air as its possible to breathe, and throwing the power out the back of it into seat wetting torque, that only a car can give a man.
Is it in a barn somewhere?Well who knows to which lucky f*@ker we should be asking that question to.??!
