Default A few reckless vids.
Seriously almost lost it around the corner. People tend to forget how well these cars handle.


0-60 spin city. Too much tq.


Another spin city. Listen to the engine come to life! Vid ends after 1 min


0-60 really doesn't mean crap cause I'm just trying to roll in to the throttle. No traction at all bellow 30. After about 30 I can mash it and the speedo climbs pretty quick. Good times!

I have hit many 4.9's thru 5.06's. Today just wasn't the day...

Hate to tell you but DashHawks need to be taken with a grain of salt I managed to pull a few upper 4 0-60s when I was stock. It is fun to have though.

Just a tool, like a dyno or drag strip. Winining a race is what really counts IMHO.
Definitely fun!!
