Don't know if the "fifth gear" car show is on in aus (I haven't been there for a while) it's a UK car show..
anyhows, the last episode they were extolling the virtues of NOS - and decided to race a 1.9 diesel VW golf against a honda NSX (they are quite quick)..
Got beaten of course, they then proceeded to fit a NOS kit to it, and raced them again.. it only got beaten by 2 car lengths!!
The golf then became a prize for some competition..
Just thought I'd share, as it was quite funny to watch!
