"There's a hierarchy of insanity in motor sports. Normal people think all racers are crazy. Folks who race sedans think people in open-wheel cars are nuts. People who race cars of any kind think motorcycle racers are absolutely off theirs meds. But there's one group that everyone agrees is made up of the most extreme, the most daring, and absolutely craziest people in racing - rally racers."

That damn volvo is in-sane. The owner is a good buddy of mine. He took it to a testntune day at the drags, left the bloody rallytires on it. The hat-backwards boyz laughed and pointed, then they got interested when he threw 4 ft flames out the tailpipe when he staged for burnout, then they, and the track safety steward, came un-freaking glued when he did wheelspin from light to trap, through all 4 gears. I ain't never laughed so hard at a motorsports event......
It's got a nascar-spec Jerico dogbox in it as nothing else could stand the abuse. Without getting it to hook up, at all, anywhere, he managed a mid-high 12 I think, with a trap speed in the low 120's...And he competes with it on logging roads. The wonder isn't that he rolled, the wonder is how he ever keeps from *not* going off...Last edited by jay; 03-24-2009, 10:11 AM.'90 AWD Protege, full GTR drivetrain swap, ~320 whp daily driver, RIP, and
'90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.
