    I too believe 1300cc cars, (I don't care how light it is), are not sufficiently powered. 2600cc is good though...ie, a Busa motor for the front wheels, and one for the back wheels. THEN, you're gonna get done for noise ordinance issues too, when you break through the sound barrier like!

    Done one in a van. Not quite as cool as that dude's effort though.

    I want to make a old school mini rear wheel drive with a turbo hayabusa engine in it. That would make a good track day car.

    The gear boxes in the busa don't like turbos when you give them a bit of weight to carry. Ask the guy who built "quadzilla". Don't think he ever completed a run up the hill climb.
