8.14@ 167mph street registered & driven bug

Just happened over the weekend at the Santa Pod Summer Nationals.

Fair old weapon!!!

I think its still a stock floor pan car too!

Impressive car, street registrable over here, don't think our dickheads in power would allow it, cage for one

Might be wrong but I think he has two that look similar, one is a pan car and potentially street able and this one.

Yeah this is the tube frame car. The one in England is a street car, still pan based. I think that's run an 8.6, so bloody quick regardless !!

Richie Webb. Same UK owner to both cars. He is becoming a European hero and celebrity with us.

Ah righto. Wasn't aware he had two of them.

Just thought it was a progression of the one car.

How fast has his original street cabby gone? Low 9's?

Either way, It puts a shame to alot of street & drag cars (both VW & V8's) here & the States.

Quick search reveals all

Yes two cars, the first was a floorpan car ran low 9's Street Reg'd and driven.

New is a chassis car, low 8's and running on alcahol, has tax and test but not really street driven or legal IMO.
