Default 86 Trans Am @ 253mph (Street legal)

New european speed record set the 15 of October 2008 by a 1986 Pontiac Trans Am
I think that's an achievement, this car was 2nd in the Silverstate Classic Challenge (Unlimited Class) in 2007, the car is competing in 2009.
So who needs a Bugatti Veyron W16 when you can go just as fast in a V8 streetlegal car

Here is the car, the page is in norwegian but you'll figure out the important numbers.
