SLR vs tuned Lada...

Tonight I went for a drive on roads of our beautiful city on SLR and there was such history:
Has met red Lada on a traffic light.
This guy on lada has started to twist his engine .
Green light - I has given odds to it ~1-2 seconds, and has pressed accelerator pedal. Lada left all further and further forward, break between us of dews when on a speedmeter was approximately 180, the distance between us began to be reduced, but further again there was a red traffic light and it was necessary to reduce speed. Further I have decided to not give odds to it - have started simultaneously. Approximately up to 140-160km/hour it was ahead, further I have easily left.
Than we stopped and talked - it appears in Lada there is 2.0L engine + turbo (Turbosystem he has made All itself. The standard motor in such Ladas - 1.5L, 75HP). Has told how raced on it on 1/4mile meter against carrera GT and win. Then he race on 1/4mile with tuned XJ220, finish approximately equally....

Just for the hell of it I fired up AltaVista Babel Fish and translated this from English to French, then French to German, then German back to Enligsh. I got this:

I went looking for this evening an order on roads of our beautiful city on SLR, and there was such a history: Lada red is met on a traffic fire. This type on lada began to rotate its engine. Green light - I has luck it given of it second place ~1-2 and it pressed the accelerator pedal. Lada continued to leave all, and more worms the front, the cut between us of damage caused by water, when on speed meters approximately 180 was, the distance between us has begun to be reduced, but promotes it gave still another red traffic fire, and it was necessary to reduce the speed. In addition I decided not to give it the luck - at the same time to have begun. Approximate up to 140-160km/hour that he forward was, others I left easily. That we held on and to have spoken - there the engine appears to 2.0L + the turbo in Lada is (turbo-system that it made everyone. The standard engine in such Ladas - 1.5L, 75HP). It said that over it packed up on the 1/4mile meter will square GT and the victory against it. Then it packs finishing on 1/4mile with XJ220 granted, approximately likewise....



...and now I understand. Nice kill.

That's gotta be our boy E55Russ! How do you pronounce "Lada?" I have seen them mentioned here and there...no clue about specs or performance, but what are they, the Eastern-Europe Supra or something? Those things gotta be mad fast to beat Carrera GT's and all.

The specs are it's a 4-banger 1.3 liter and puts out a whopping 70 or 75 hp. And that's the fully loaded model. The fully unloaded one is like 1.1 liter. That's what I recall anyway. And you pronounce it L'a'd'a. Just like you're reading it. Imagine saying "lava" with a "d" instead of "v".
