nice car i like the way the new gti's look. i'm guessing you beat that sti from a roll because off the line sti's run mid to low 13s. your car runs a 13.9 right?

i wonder about that.... setup a date next year when the track season opens again...

road course also lots of variables..... driver experience and skill plays a major roll.. give alonso a corolla and he'd probably beat us in a enzo

Nice kill list.

I find it hard to believe a chip, intake and exhaust brought you from 200hp to 300hp, though.

13.9 in a 3200lb car is closer to 270hp. what was your trap speed?

Car looks nice.
