Probably modded with a 400 lb driver LAOAL!!!
I dunno, seems too pitiful for that car to basically take 20 seconds to get to 60 mph if it were bone stock....maybe its CAI slowed it down. [&:]

RE: funny story
I'm pretty sure the guy wasnt trying. Them things should atleast run in the 16's or 17's, LOL.

RE: funny story
ugh....try more like 18s. TURDS, but hell I dunno, I ran against a guy in a mid 90s neon that went 19.0 @ 58ish mph.....
I wonder if that guy ran his car, then plans on doing some mods and just ran for a baseline pass.

Hell, my 2003 3/4 ton Dodge Ram 4X4 with the 5.7 liter Hemi ran a flat 16 second 1/4 mile and it weighed over 6000 lbs! lol And that was with just a programmer.

RE: funny story
I hear the drag coefficient becames a big factor after 20 mph with those cars. That must have slowed him down.
