Very true but this car finished third overall in HOTROD's DragWeek '06...1500 miles on the road and five dragstrips in five days.

Full interior, licensed, inspected, insured...it's for real.

Most turbo cars are very docile and can be run on the street. We have a monte carlo ss out here that is twin turboed but if I drove it to the front of your house you would think that its a 12 sec car until you saw it at the strip run a 4.80-5.00 1/8 mile. My 87 t-type is getting the same setup my buddy has and he runs 9.80's in the 1/4 and he drives it to work.

I thought you might like to see Jon on his third launch of the evening last night.

There was a nice full page picture of the car in HotRod last year with the hood up...and it's as clean under there as the rest of the car. Oh, and it is a 4cyl. if you're having doubts

I know this is off topic...sorry. I noticed your name is "Bret Kepner". Are you the Bret Kepner who does the ESPN personality and commentary at national racing events?
