Low cool I guess. 650 horsepower is nothing to sneeze at, although being a race car means it isn't that extraordinary. Let me know if any of the pictures are of the wrong Commodore.
 
I love Australian V8 Supercars, or whatever it is called nowadays. I am a Holden fan, but I seem to love the Ford Falcon AU V8 Supercars. I can't go "Sub-Zero" on this V8 Supercar, but it is VERY far from being "Meh." So there's only one choice for me- Cool.

Well to be fair it doesn't have any electronics like Traction Control or ABS. And also it was able to get up to 300km/h at Bathurst due to the car having pretty basic aero.
 
Stats are incorrect. The car was raced for 2 years in 2003 and 2004 before the VZ came in 2005. The weight is 1,450KG. It won Bathurst in 2003 and 2004 whilst the VZ won in 2005, so the car did NOT win Bathurst 3 years in a row.

It's cool but it 's not sub-zero. Sub-zero would be the FPV BA GT that was pantsing it at the time. ;):sly:
