The only car that I know of that is that fast is "Casper" from W2W. It did start its life as a "real" car, and it is running a 4 link rear suspension.

Poor guy has had to replace alot of the factory parts on the car, i so feel bad for him.. LOL... still bad *** no matter what to go that fast on that tire with a n2o combo.. even if its 700+ci

The first race that car came out it was a full tube strut car with a firewall. Everyone came unglued. The next race he had the factory strut towers tack welded on to make it look stock. ORSCA told him not good enough. Now the car has a factory front end welded on from the firewall forward. Of cours the car has slowed down some too.
