Not to be outdone, the Melling Hellcat is lining up a team for 2008.

Obviously you can expect a rush of "northern" motor racing fans for next year.....you can add to Drinking for Holland, Schmoking for Jamaica with Flat Capping for Rochdale!!  Grin

This is the latest prototype pf the Melling Hellcat, the fastest production car, with a 0-60 time of 2.6 seconds and a top speed of 275 mph.

Altough it was supposed to be powered by a V10 engine delivering 700 hp, the company says it will be powered by a Quad Turbo V10 with an output of 1175 hp. And it seems that the final production car is close to world debut.
Bl**dy 'ell!! Shocked

This is a real Rochdale.  83mph flat cap out and 0-60 in the time it take to pull a decent pint.

Certainly looks like a 350z on steroids....with all that power perhaps "The Hampster" would like a test drive!!!!!!.....rather than Clarkson.

Mind you with Mr.Mellings obvious engine tuning capabilities,it might just do well in the GT/GTs class if he has the right driver line up!
