Damn, quite the ride. I believe there is a video floating around somewhere of that car making a few dyno runs. The HKS heat shield over the exhaust housing adds a nice touch of bling :bounce:

I was the first person to bid on it, but now it's out of my price range.

Just out of curiosity, what's a car of that caliber run for a piston/rod combination: Oliver/Ross? I would have said Groden but would Groden rods still be considered forged?

I saw that car on ebay last week or the week before with a buy it now of $48k. A little high I thought.

I wonder how many tracks would let him run with that nitrous bottle in the passenger seat? Doesn't there have to be a firewall between the passenger cabin and the bottle?

No. It isn't as dangerous as something like a fuel cell.

I guess I was remembering something about the tech inspectors hassleing someone with a hatchback that didn't have a backseat with a nitrous bottle in the back..

Except for the guy with the Camry or something like that a few years ago where the nitrous bottle exploded and blew most of the rear of the car to bits.

That price is much more reasonable. That's a lot of car for that money. But I still like Buschur's tube car instead, except for the paint.
