Get rid of those 17" wheels and put low profile 15" on and i reckon you can shave a second or 2 off.

I'll raise an old topic and reason for doing this is to give you guys a reference on performance of Racings ride, which back then didn't ran well at all. Imagine the performance later, when it ran as it should

These results below are from here: http://www.car.ee/speedest.2004/tulemused/

And the distance was the same 1/8 mile. The best reference is trap speed, which indicates well the cars potential.

Explanation to numbers: reaction time, 60ft time, ET and trap speed.

402 Erkki Vapper Porsche 911 Turbo 0.095 2.408 8.729 142.339kmh
430 Kaido Krumm BMW 540 Bi-T 0.205 2.060 7.688 154.497kmh
