That little thing? I think it'll do the 1/4 mile in the 13.6 like you said, probably get up to about 74 mph.

yes, i think he is taking a leak, and it being a piece is kind of the point!

Driving a car that is a complete piece of crap is great... No one looks at you, you don't have to worry about where you park or people breaking into it.... And if it traps higher than your typical low 13 second wrx or stock ws-6 trans am it's all the better
