I saw it at the Metro centre and spoke to the lad who bought it.
Apparently after that he crashed into some Old People and it was repaired by DP Motorsports and was then sold again. So I guess it was dismantled after that?

Nope... Bruce Spence hit 11's long before Fennel did...

Infact Bruce still holds the record of 11.02sec 1/4mile... And that was about 4 years ago now...

Richard Hammond did a very short test in a R. It must of been on Top Gear as I dont think he has done anything else? He compared it to an Escort Cosworth and I think an Evo. He said the Pusar "was the ultimate wholf in sheeps clothing". That was a few years back now. Think he used a car of here too. It was Black and had spotlamps in the grill

Danny Fennel held the pod record for for a gtir for a very long time @11.7 secs.

Now I hold it @ 11.2 :-D And i'm soon going to smash that as well ;-)
