1.9 seconds seems really far-fetched. I won't believe it til they post a video of it! lol

600 HP out of a 2-liter. I remember when it was "holy cow" when Lotus was getting 400HP out of the 2 liter in the Turbo Esprit. Frack, I'm getting old.

I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(

Agreed.

I hear you get shorter too, as you get older.  You're going to need some wood blocks like Short Round pretty soon.  :o

As for the car, I remember when half the hp in a car twice the size was fun.

You can make anything fast...  With enough money.  I remember a guy by the name of toma, he had a dodge omny that
annihilated a viper at race city (very low 11s). There was also a k car in the low 11s, and a rather large lady drove it (when she sat in it it leaned to the d side).

Wrong.

Toma's Omni ran 13.12 vs the Vipers 13.26 ( not an annihilation in my book) Still an impressive feat considering that the Omni had a stock bottom end but the Viper owner/driver was a newb at the track and spun at the lights while  Toma has been racing since he was a teenager and launched well at the tree.The Omni was built for under $3000 . Big Turbo and tuning FTW.

Wrong race Noel.  The one i have on VHS was 11.2 vs 15.6. That is an annihilation.  But then again this was 10 years ago it might not be toma.  :o
Edit: Tomas car had to be quicker than that. I did a 12.9 at 110 in my POS civic crap car, and his was way faster

That's funny. My wife and I are together because of toma. He was a bouncer at the taz when we first met him. It was my 19th b day. And he helped hook us up

15.6 in a Viper? Did the driver know he was racing?
