I agree drag cars can look quite funny and odd.. but this Lexus is definitely one of the funnier/uglier looking ones. Some I think, don't look too bad, even good, but "beautiful" may not be a good description... :thinking:

Here is the engine info u wanted:

Well, the car is 2JZ powered, has a triple disc titanium East West clutch, Gforce GF2000 transmission, Carbon fiber driveshaft, 78mm Turbonetics turbo, 5'' downpipe, HKS manifold, Hogans sheet metal intake, Sparco air to water intercooler, Motec M800, Motec CDI, Racepak V300, and Lots of carbon fiber. The car is making about 1400RWHP. We still have lots to figure out, still trying to dial in the chassis. Best this weekend 7.51 at 184, made it to the finals against my good friend Paul Efantis. But lost to him 7.49 to a 7.61. We are on our way to Pomona now for the NHRA world finals this weekend. Hope to see some of you there. Thanks again everyone.

INSANE!!!! I wonder how much of that setup can be installed in stock/street GS300 to make it a Z06-smoking sleeper. :P
