A lot of my friends are really into import racing and stuff and they like to supe up their Integras and WRX's and Civic SI's and thingies like that but I'm not so much into them. Possibly b/c I don't have the resources to get a hold of a nice vehicle LOLLOL but I have seen video clips of this guy who suped up his Dodge Caravan minivan and it beat out a Camaro in a drag race! Anyways I dunno just thought I'd post something hehehe |

| Yea my friend has a blue Impreza WRX (but it's Auto transmission and not manual) and I think he is planning to trade it in next year for the STI (which is manual I think). |

Baaah, yea I know he gets sooo sick of people telling him that! haha But I guess that is why he is trading it in. I think the main and real reason why he got an automatic was because he wanted his dad to be able to drive it sometime too and his dad preferred an automatic transmission.  |

For sure PC.
Have a 300zx auto which we take to the summer night drag comps here in NZ.
Its not really a serious competitor in amongst the big boys but we manage to get through to the semi's from time to time.
Car is putting out about 400hp @ THE FW. Best time to date is a 13.7.
The 2nd 300 is getting built up at the moment. Presently it is rated just over 600hp @ FW but once it is finished we are really hoping for a bit better than 700. Should be a lot more competitive. Both cars are 3l twin turbo.
Ive seen the vid of the Dodge Caravan too...magic
Awesome fun ...
