Ok now dont get me wrong, that looks like a VERY fun car.

I wouldnt spend my dough on it unless I had like Donald Trump or Bill Gates type of cashflow though.
I would have all kinds of wild cars like that.
But till then its Honda Civics and Camaro Z28s for me. [sigh]

Is it just me or should 630 HP get you better than 10.9?

VERY cool car, it will spank a lot of **** im sure, and I bet its a blast to drive (and those donuts!) but I would rather have something else.

damn thats a badass car though.

My point exactly - 630 HP is a HELLA lot of power. Most supra's will spank this **** with LESS HP. Hell, cat's vic was running 13's on basically stock motor (blown of course) before he blew a head gasket. But shi+ - 10's for that much hp is just sad.....considering he probably had to do a lot of engineering to put 2 freakin' engines in the car. I'm wondering myself how he got the wheels to spin at the same rate. I mean, if you have 2 independant powerplants - how can you get the wheels exactly the same? I can understand if you are linked through a transfer case as in the deal with all wheel drive - but with two seperate engines I don't know if its possible - and if not - than its got to be a tough bitch to drive.....

you also have to consider the extra weight added by another motor creating a very heavy car making the 10.9 respectable due to the wight now if it was about 3000 pounds it would be hell a faster
