i'm so glad they did that to an import...

and did you notice the staring weight, 2700 lbs yet all it could do is pull a 2.9 60 ft....

[Alxsmt]

lol i didnt notice that! i thought my 2.2 60ft was slow. and that qtr mile time seems funny too

Before:
Curb Weight: 2,762 lbs
1/4 Mile:16.3 @ 84.0 mph
60-foot:2.9 sec.
0-60 mph:8.6 sec

After
Curb Weight:1,674 lbs
1/4 Mile:14.3 @ 93.2 mph
60-foot:2.6 sec.
0-60 mph:5.8 sec.

900 lbs and they dropped 2 seconds, but only gained .3 for a 60ft time....

They were good up to the point to where they started taking the doors and all off. You guys know as well as I do that no dragway will let a car without doors let alone a windshield go up and down the track without concern for safety. My local track fully inspects every car before they are allowed to race. All of this is for safety and this POS is definetly exempt!!!

I have been looking for that article for a while. Thanx.

But it has to be at least 5 years old.

And it is a fun read.

If you ever want to make something stop existing, the Milwaukee Sawzall is the tool.

Best line.

That's funny, lol. I agree with the safety thing though. My friend almost wasn't able to run because his battery wasn't strapped down. Then again, I don't recall seeing a single jack stand, so obviously safety went out the window since there was no glass to hold it in...

That's funny.

Even my stock Firebird with 100whp (stock suspension) could hit a 2.0 60' and 17 flat
