thank god it was only a poor sentra.........

 

That is crazy! From 16.3 @ 84.0 mph to 14.3 @ 93.2 mph

That was the stupidest article ive ever seen in a magazine, I actually have that issue. What a waste of an article and a car, but still kinda humerous to say the least A stock 2k2 6spd will run that # stock

 

that thing is FASSST!

 

Haha that is so stupid! Can't believe how stupid there are, I think I am goign to try that duct tape air filter mod.

 

LMFAO .. oh thats great

 

I really don't think it's that stupid. For many people it is a good demonstration of the effects of weight reduction, which many people over and underestimate.

yeah, they did do a lot of weight reduction ... but how many people are actually gonna take that course of action to lose 2 secs off their 1/4 mile ... if they wanna lose 2 secs they'll buy a new car ... plus that car is junk now. they can't drive it around on the streets because it's illegal and dangerous

 

imagine if there "project car" was a maxima

 

That's exactly my point. All that work, removing the majority of the chassis, and they only lose 2 seconds. So in reality, how much is a carbon-fiber hoor or fiberglass front end really going to help?

uhh...they basically stripped the car down.

if i saw that thing on the road in that condition...
interesting article.

 

Yeah you kinda have a point there, but it was all fun and games until they busted out a sawzaa. Thats when it got really stupid.
