Goes to show that if you put a big enough turbo on most cars it will go fast. Lets see him run a sub 10 NA, now that would be impressive.

its ok not much of a fan of the 6's tho:unsure:

i kind of like drag racing for the technical achievements that some cars are, but you wonder how many runs that car would make before the turbo blew up.

a good thing about v8 supercars is they run endurance races where you know the car is properly designed to go the distance, or it won't. with drag racing, it's a bit like playing roulette where you hope it doesn't blow up this time.

Pretty good effort, i agree about the rims^^.

Yeh, sub 10 seconds on small 6 cylinder N/A motor in a family car... Yeh right :whistling

So what's it make without the turbo? 150rwkw?

It is not a street car.

A street car is one that is fully legal, no cage, full interior, street tyres.


Awesome purpose built drag car tho.
