    Absolutely.
    Fricken.
    Killed it.
    Passing old mustangs, corvettes, porsches, NEW mustangs, and more! It's insane!

    I get that it's Bridge Ported, but damn, didn't think a 12A could whoop that much ass that easily. +1 for badass drivermod too

      @CarsandCollectors 4 года назад

      Totally disagree. 12as are not nearly as powerful as a 13b

    Oh my god. Is this car N/A? I think this is one of my favorite runs I've ever watched. Like 2nd place to Senna in the 1990 Monaco Grand Prix. That was some serious driving in a serious car good sir.

    I'm not really a rota fan but that was impressive, it just shows, its far better to have a well set up, light car, with low/moderate power than heavy american muscle or Euro.

      @MagsN4 10 лет назад

      it does get to the point where if you have too much power you need a car with a longer wheel base and wider track so thats where the larger euros and murican cars come into their own.
