Default who has raced a Turbo PT Cruiser in Fort Worth

i hear that there is a Turbo PT Cruiser hanging out around beach street that has beat alot of high horsepower LS1, SRT4, & sangs. He says that he is stock but i have heard that he has beaten some cars with alot of power. Does anyone know who i am talking about? have they raced him?

Listen to what you just said... a STOCK PT Cruiser beating LS1 and Mustangs???
A stock PT Cruiser, turbo'd or not couldnt even beat its way out of traffic. I think a Turbo PT does high 16s in the 1/4

I've raced him I think. He was quick enough to catch me off the line, but around 100 I took him. Then again I was stock back then.

I've raced a blue one at Ennis that ran low 14's. It had a big-*** fart can on it, and you could definitely hear the turbo. Obviously, he wouldn't be beating any LS1s that noticed he was trying to race.
