when i lived in huston there was a metro at the street races once in a great while that was converted to rear wheel drive. that was one bad mother. pulled the front wheels every time. it was the greatest thing ive ever seen

I just enjoyed watching all the other cars in the video...got a little bored seeing the bug run the same times over and over. It's is pretty amazing that a POS like that can be so quick. I saw a bug at the local track here last summer w/ wheelie bars and that thing hauled major ***!

Bugs weigh about 16-1800# and take virtually no hp to move. The Volkswagon engine also is a torque MONSTER! (im not shitting you, they produce more tq in proportion to their hp than your LS1 does, proportionate to hp). They are also cheap as hell to modify and rear engine, rwd, i think the rest speaks for itself. Not suprised at all
