EZRIDN, you grew up in Roanoke? Very pretty area. My company has a factory there, very nice area.
I have a friend who has a newer Volvo and it moves pretty good. It's no match for my mustang, but I could see it taking V6 Camaros, Mustangs and any ricer. I think it was rated at 250 HP or something. The car is pretty heavy though, so that's why it's not faster off the line.
Hammer and I saw a Volvo running at the 1/8th mile track running 6's and low low 7's. It was definately not stock (the engine came up through a hole in the hood
).
