About

This is my old drag car. It was a gutted and lightened supercharged VW Rabbit that turned the quarter in the 12 second range. In total I had about 3,000 into this car and had a great return on it. I ended up tearing it down to build another street car but ended up selling all of it off to go to college.

Supercharged 1.8L from Corrado
210hp & 247ft/lbs (not a misprint)
