lol...two completely different cars altogether.

IMHO...the sheer tq output of the 2.3T v. the SC SVT is enough to make anyone change there outlook. And the fact that it has an independent rear suspension to go with that RWD...makes it even betterZ!

From Sunday - thanks to frocus, sam, and justin (i'll get the pics from justin in bit) for them. thanks to sam for the videos.





super awesome hand on wheel technique. I guess i lift the inner front tire quite a bit. neato.











you can see a fairly clean run, versus a not so clean run. tried a different rear tire pressure. didn't work. and they changed the course btwn that run and the one i had before (note: it's where i killed the cones).




Now accepting sponsors for a limited slip diff. Cant seem to get the power to the ground (note the tire smoke coming out of just about every corner, straight, etc. have to go super part throttle and it is just killing my times as this car has SO much love to give, but she cant give it thru one wheel. )

Man that car is pure sex and has come a hell of a long way since your first post. Clean it up a bit by losing the body molding and get the cossie wing. Course then you won't want to thrash it with a $1000 dollar wing lol. Nice car.
