The coolest thing about the car is that it's a daily driver. I know of alot of guys that say thier car is a daily driver, like the guys that run in True Street, and if they were honest about it, they only drive the car to the race track. It's not the fastest thing on the road by any means. I can think of 10-20 other cars off the top of my head that I would never run in the GT, but they aren't daily driver's.
This is a car that even with 550(just a guess) at the wheels, is just as drivable as the Focus my wife drives to work every day. How many high horsepower cars can you say that about?
I think I'll lobby the NMRA to start a new class...
Daily Street(well can you think of a better name for a class?) where you still have the same rules as True Street, but you also have to do a salom course. How many cars would that disquallify?
Oh yeah, I do have one video of the car, but it's not very flattering. It was at an 1/8th mile track and I couldn't get any traction ALL the way down the track. I still ran an 8.2, but that was serious wheel spin. I was running on the street tires just to see what I could pull off. you should have seen everyone's face when I was spinning at the top of third crossing the line. That was cool.
God I love that car.
Later.
