No.
it isnt.

Who knows?

but the rigolis car runs 700bhp from a 2 litre and gets 10.02 secs on the quarter mile.

mclaren F1 record is 11.1 something.

1000bhp skyline was 10.14

 

Dom Rigoli is working on something else as we speak (er type). It will be a lot quicker down the quarter than the old car but I don't think you can call it a rex any longer.

The old car was stroked out to more than 2 litres as well.

 

Has anyone started looking at the 3 litre engine from the Outback Legacy?
Can it be turboed (with reliability)?

But he does say 'chute for 9 sec passes'
I assume this means the 1/4 mile?

 

Rexes are not drag cars. If that's what a person wants to do they should buy a cheap and light shell and stick a triple rotor into it. Any rex that will do a ten second quarter (or faster) will be less a car that just about any belonging to readers of this forum.

As for the H6, give it time. There is a 2.5 Outback 4 with two turbos hanging off it over here. It pulls 215 on the same straight that I get 170 and brakes over 25 metres earlier :-(

 

Hey scoobysnacks got any pics or a link to where you found it??

It would be even faster if the audio was removed

 

Here it is:

 

Pah!!! amateurs......

Car Customisation:
Judged as a proportion of the overall value of the car, the accessories fitted to the Mark II Escort of Wayne Fletcher (GB) add up to the world's most expensive car customisation project at 105761%. Between 8th March 1986 and 22nd September 1996, Fletcher has spent a grand total of £63,456.99 at the Stockport branch of Halfords in an attempt to attract girls to his vehicle. His fruitless purchases include a Paddy Hopkirk Full Body Styling Kit (£3500), 'Nightrider' style Disco Stop Lights (£199), Split 45 Weber Carburettors x4 (£200), Scorpion Talking Alarm, (£500), a Cromium plated Mock Twin Exhaust Extension (£285), fluffy dice (£1.99) and big foot accelerator pedal (£2.99). The car is currently valued at £50 to £60.
