Wild 73 Twin Turbo Beast
Just picked this up...anyone care to race? I'll be upgrading to GT35R's with the Forced Performance HTA compressor wheel and anti-surge housing along with Individual Throttle Bodies. Car weighs only 2200lbs. and should make an easy 700+RWHP. Thinking about tagging it for a little street terrorizing...it has a VIN! I bet it will have a pretty good 60-130 time.

Oh yeah! If it gets too annoying, no big deal, it's only a vinyl wrap...all white underneath.

P.S. Should make some people crap themselves when they see it on the street...pretty trippy don't you think?

Well, it is a track car, but throw on some DOT tires (Michelin Sport Cup 295/30 and 345/30), headlights, wipers, and hand signals...you're good to go. It has a VIN since it started life as a 1973 street car, buy some antique car insurance, get a tag, done.
