    Alex Laughlin is a class act. It sounds silly, but a car like that on no prep always has a disadvantage to an AWD car. When you watch the 1320 video no prep races you see that as long as the AWD cars can keep from scattering their drivetrain they dominate. Beyond 900 or so HP it's a traction game.

    RIP Ken. I gotta say though this is why I love AWD so so much. Not just in a straight line, the extra grip is insane. Back in the 90's I was a poor kid with a legit 10 sec naturally aspirated fox body mustang with, get this: a 410" stroker with steel crank and rods but carbed. It was a blast on a prepped track but dry roads felt like ice. I ran a top loader 4spd because I couldn't afford a tremec trans. I could smoke Eagle GTs at 65 in high gear on the highway just by punching it. Later on I had an 1800lb 66 911 with a carbed and hot rodded 911SC 3.0 liter, another totally tail happy car. Once I got a chance to drive a newer AWD 911 turbo it was all over for me with RWD. Mad props to the NHRA driver for giving it a go on that course and !ad props to Lia, fantastic driving!

      All this is true, but I prefer cars which are fun and usable in the varied situations of the real world, rather than one trick ponies which need a specially prepared 1/4 mile stretch to do "their thing". That the Hoonicorn could get anywhere close to a dedicated drag car in a straight line makes it worthy of respect considering it could also be used on a rally course or winding road where the drag car would have no chance.

      It's a cool ride. The only problem with it is that it either hooks up on launch, and tries to flip over, or it doesn't hook and just burns the tires. Can't wait to see it though. Hope the boys can keep the front end down for a good run. The thing is crazy fast, but it was built for sand.
