Yes, a Ford Festiva, i'm only in high school. I built it myself.

First run was the only close run and you can still hear me spinning. I spin hard in 1st and 2nd. This was with the cutout closed or else I would spin way harder.

I had 2 passengers and he had one.

I got a ride along after and the GTO does not suck at shifting. Last race I short shifted trying not to spin but it slowed me down bad.

Turbo Festiva = Super Sleeper

(At 16 PSI I hope you have a MLS head gasket and ARP head studs!)

Nope, real real low budget. Stock non-turbo block because the turbo one failed already.

Intake, catback and short shifter.

Excellent runs sir!! (badass car to boot! :) )

And this is WHY anything I decide to actually race, from a vette, to a garbage truck, to a Yugo, gets sprayed withat least a 100 shot...:)

Ps - love the bov!

Thats a respectable build man. Props.

Need to see where all that rattling is coming from though. If thats your DD, it must drive you up the wall.

I had tons of stuff on the floor and there is no carpet so that rattles and also the rear hatch doesn't have the rubber bump stops and that creates a lot of rattling.

I'm 18 so it's bearable:jest: Rode in the GTO and damn it was so nice. I try to DD it but it takes 91

Here are some track runs if anyone wants to watch. I didn't get any 13's on video but I did trap 105mph today.

That's a hilarious little project.

Props man!

Thanks. I couldn't afford a Honda so I built this. Nice avatar:cool:

Lmao I've seen that car at Infineon before! I always laughed when it pulled up to the line but it doesn't do too bad. If I'm out there during the summer I'll line em up with you.

My first attempt at an LS1 was a complete fail. I couldn't beat a stock auto LS1 Camaro on 22's

Anything not running 10s nowadays is slow especially now that bone stock z06s have broken into the 10s.

Having said this, a well driven, healthy GTO will run high 12s bone stock off of the showroom floor and should be trapping 106-108

And as someone said in a similar thread we aren't talking about slow fast cars, we are talking about fast slow cars! :D

I LOVE this particular festiva! And I never thought I'd ever say that honestly...lol

Your dumbass never seems to amaze me. Again, if a GTO is slow, so is your fat fucking pig.
