    Well that's a good start!

    ^ Schweeeeet! Nice traction issues!

    I believe there used to be (may still be? - sorry, I've unfortunately been out of the DSM community for a while now) a high-powered 2Gb Eclipse around the midwest that would routinely break-traction (*all wheels*) from 60+ MPH highway pulls.

    I can't imagine driving around a beast like that - even though I really do want to. :twisted:

    Oh, and I should mention that that's on racing gas, with only one turbo, and no Nitrous Oxide (and no, not Nitromethanol, either)

    OK one turbo... but it is 25x the size of a normal gas engine turbo Must be off of some diesel-powered SHIP or something

    I've been scratching my head for the past 3 minutes trying to figure out how you could get a car throught a 1/4 mile in 4.9 seconds at less than 300 mph. Then the "1/8th mile" finally registered. LOL!

    That's what I get for knowing next to nothing about drag racing except that vette is F'N fast!!
