This Kadett can burn rubber like no other, but most importantly, it can humiliate modern supercars in a straight line acceleration.

With an almost stock exterior, bar the giant intercooler visible from beneath the front grille, and a few updates here and there, including the addition of a roll cage in case things go bad, the car was filmed at a drag racing event in Germany.

Powering it is a heavily tuned Redtop equipped with a turbocharger running at 3.1-bar. Channeling the insane output to the wheels is an F28 gearbox.

This Kedett proved its credentials against the clock in a 1/2-mile run, hitting a top speed of over 194 mph. To put this into perspective, an even more powerful Toyota Supra, with some 1,400 horses, managed to sprint up to 200 mph  over the same distance.
