me and greenfoam have created a challenge. we want to see who can hit the 0-60mph in 4.9 or less seconds first, and maybe give an idea of the costs involved in reaching it. im sure we will both update this thread with every new mod or tune we run. we also want to know of any of VN-VS commodores that have done it. feel free to post any comments, and join the race if you like
