Yeah, I saw that earlier... I don't get it though; 3.0 (assuming 12 valve) with an S/C and "only" 209 at the wheels...? What am I missing here?
A stock 3.0 12 valve on programmable EFI, good headers and larger intake runners already makes 180 - what gives?
A stock 3.0 24 valve with headers, Q runners & larger intakes, and a GTA Stage I cam and GoTech already makes 220 at the wheels!
The number seems a bit low - cool car though!

And whoever said the Milano has weak wheel bearings must be wrong:

That is very bizarre.
I believe Greg's S/C GTV6 when it simply a stock 2.5L 12V running L-Jet put out around 220hp. The SuperRedVerde he built which is a fairly direct comparison to the car in the video (Stock 3.0L 12V engine with bigger injectors, SDS ECU, water to air intercooler and water/meth injection) puts out 325hp! Go figure.
Anyhow, I remember seeing that section of clip in the racing montage someone posted up a while ago! It actually looks much better in real time, the whole thing happens in the space of about 10 seconds!
ROCK ON

See Grant, I TOLD you, the Milano has great balance. Also, isn't this safer than drifting?

That last one is incredible, I've seen two wheel driving before but never ths slow and without corrections, is there a trick here, wires or whatever? 
Isn't the owner of that 75 SC on the board? I recognize the incredibly wide slicks. Believe it has a one of Gregs kits too.
BTW, slicks on rollers will give you totally different results then regular road tires.

Mats, I don't know if the owner is on the BB or not, but I'd like to find out too...
The car has "SM" on it which I'm hoping is the SCCA Solo class "Street Modified". I'd love to hear what he has done to the car and how competitive it is in that class!

This must be the new and improved No-Slip differential I've heard about.  |
