Thanks for the links. And for those of us that have been touring the FFCo$ra forum, we are all laughing at that last link.

Was the "Wife driving" posted over there? I must have missed it. If you scroll down and read the comments, they are not kind to that poor woman! I'm not defending her, I'd be pretty pissed too, but some of these guys are out for blood!

I'm planning on playing the video for my wife tonite. I'm curious if she will sympathize with the woman (was she hurt?) or the husband (did you hear him saying "yep, she did it!! I knew it! I knew it!".

That 10.31 et was run on pump gas and only 15 lbs boost....on street tires.
With 740 lb/ft of torque at the rear wheels.

With slicks he has enough HP to run solidly in the 9's at over 140 mph.

Welcome to the world of street turbos....

Automatic Trans too - I think

Yeah, that video has been over played on FFC. People sneak it in now from time to time as a joke. I think she was also a little drunk and behind the wheel.

This one is cool, not sure if it's a commercial or what. Found over on FFC
