Singing to the choir, brother. My son got his for FREE when I filled up at Chevron.

Quick? Hell, more like untouchable. The lego cars have NO chance of keeping up.......

Stock turbo will be the bottleneck in his system, and you should take him at this point. If he upgrades the turbo at 22psi, it will be a drivers race.
Yea I couldn't believe how cheap it was to mod these things. you can get a real nice on for around $9-10K, and another $10K, and you will have a very fast car. But I cant help but think it is too small. After seeing it next to the 55, It did indeed look like a toy car. You should see how much room is left in one of my garage bays with this in it... Its unbelievably small.

Was he actually at WOT in that first video?

It looked like the pull from 80 - 100 took something like 8 seconds.


An E55 with a bad IC pump could beat that.

Yes, he was WOT, but there were 4 adults in the car. Were going to try it out again, with just 2, and low on gas. In the 1rst gear pull vid, at the end he stopped because of a county cop, thats what hes talking about at the end of the video.

4 pages? Just too much for an unreal attempt race.
