In car vid going 189 MPH... ...in a 1977 VW Rabbit 
All the info I have is that the car was built in France, is a two door rabbit, and it runs a VW 1.8L or 2.0L 16V with a turbo boosted to 26-28psi.

Also, I'd rather be spinning my front wheels over the rear in 4th gear at 200km/h .

Only thing is they're shaped like bricks, so it actually takes a good bit of power to push them through the air.
