oh shit that was funny, great stuff.
But after all that only a 14.3? It only weighed 1600lbs!
I guess an mx6 is not a good platform for a drag car

Must have been a lot of fun! without knowing probably, they improved the design! the rear wheel on the last picture is amazingly original!

Hahaha.. this is a great story, i wonder where they got the car to start with in the first place! Expensive joke i must say 
But anyways, does emphasise the point that weight reductions are a real saving....

I remember that issue that was fuckin hilarious we did that with a friends car once after it failed emissions twice so he bought a new SE-R spec-V. the car was an old 95 cavalier we ripped everything off the car but not the roof. it really does help though
