Sad this is that that car was only built to be a show car for Nitto tires. there was no real intentions to race the car.But it is 1 hell of a roller if it goes up for sale.

Give it to the puerto ricos and I bet that short wheel base will go fast.

The wheel base is longer than it looks. If i recall, the wheel base is 106" or 108" which really isn't a short wheelbase. Our Rwd Celica is 104" and the puerto rican starlets are 89" to 92"

It will be me! I have Ron @ IPS working on a 2.2 that I'll be pushing into the high 600 whp. range, my drag sup just got finished, & I just mounted my bogarts. Should be about 1,2 months until I finish. Plan on running 10's with the worst honda chassis out there.

BTW, I did get a 12.6 with a stock motor & 24.5x8 slicks. Time for bigger & better things.

well these are the guys to beat then if they are the fastest http://www.cplracing.co.uk/

apparently planning on a 9 second run next year (personaly think he should try a 10 first lol) and there are also a few other cars rumoured including a 600+hp k24 ep3

ive heard alot of bad things about cpl blowing up b series engines and not taking responsibility for their mistakes so i hope you do kick their **** mate and just make sure its a very hard time for them to beat

They're going to find out the hard way that the K motor is very tempermental when it comes to big boost, which is the reason I went with Ron & his widened crank/build.
The only thing holding me back from taking it to the 800 whp range will be the size of the turbo & a little more fuel.

If they're blowing up B's then they'll have a hell of a time with high hp. K's
I'm just looking for 10's for my own personal satisfaction!
