HUH??? how did that happen? even with nos that thing should have a problem with u, those things are bricks almost 4K lbs.
ive never had a problem with any lincoln. unless he was some rich guy who built a frankenstein motor and threw is in there, damn i would. i swear one day im gonna but a caravan, and strip the whole thing, throw the viper motor in the back, and really **** off some hondas. imagine gettin ur doors blown off my a minivan now thats a sleeper!

I think I start searching for a Chrysler Aeries K rally car, junk car that I could roll in the ditch, drive through fields, jump broken bridges with, etc. (sort of like the Dukes of Hazard). I ran across this link about turbo minivans and thought it was some sort of joke. I saw the video and could not believe my eyes. I did a search on turbo minivans and found lots of people online with 12 and 13 second minivans.

Those Lincolns are sleepers. Maybe he had some Mustang GT Mods under the hood.

hmmm....

http://auto.consumerguide.com/auto/u...fm/id/2058.htm

"Road Test Evaluation

With its new 280-horsepower V8 (290 with the LSC), the Mark VIII is quick off the line and
once above 15 mph, really flies. The engine is silky smooth, has a sporty growl in hard
acceleration, and delivers outstanding passing power at highway speeds."

Let alone if it had any mod's...

Let's not forget that the Mark VIII's motor is a detuned Cobra motor. With a few minor changes, that car could be quite nasty on takeoff. But those cars tend to exhibit excessive body roll in the twisties.

BWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! OMG that was funny!!!

I was going to mention that some people have tweaked those old Turbo Caravans to run 12's but I guess everyone knows that already.

Can you imagine the ego of that dude in the Camaro? Dang I bet he developed ED after that run at the track. Poor dude has to use Viagra now.
