I'm glad i dont ride in this car often because it would make me feel bad every time i go back to my sub 200hp SPG =) This guy takes his car to the track and has run a best of 12.7 1/4 ... grr but the car really shines on the highway. These cars are much more suited for harder racing than ours and he races it often on the track (in season) and on the highway late at night sometimes. He's beaten just about everything you can name except probably a porsche TT. He's run up against a 300zx TT tuned to about 400hp (i was in the car and OH GOD). If i had the money, it would be REALLY tempting to get one of these and keep the old SPG too of course. The parts are cheaper and more plentiful and they're much easier to pull gobs of power out of than our cars unfortunately. But (HAHA) they're still destroying trannys and transfer cases once in a while like us. I'm not bashing our beloved 900's but these cars are quite nice. Here's a link to thier newly formed DSM club in New Jersey (an offshoot of a national club). http://nj.dsm.org On the member's page, the first one owned by Andre cardadeiro is the one i rode in. Check it out for a change of pace I guess =)
