Custom duct tape on the window too :0


You know that adds like 50 hp if it's "200 MPH" tape, right? Right!?

650rwhp is plenty to run a 9 in the fd.

but where does it show it does a 9 second run on street tires?


It doesn't. They say it's a 9 second car, which was wearing street tires at that time. Not that it does a 1320 in 9 seconds on street tires. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

i just saw the video and im pretty sure they mean 9 seconds w/ street tires. and other than a sceptical launch that car can definatly be a 9 second car judging by how insanly fast it acceled

I doubt they can hook up and do a 9 second quarter mile on street tires, but you never know.

The guy was just sayin it could do nine seconds. There aint a fd anywhere that will do 9 on street radials.

RussellTT94 03-15-2005 12:37 PM

yeah, i don't think i've ever heard of 9's on a street tire in a FD.
