Hmmm we have one at work that looks alot like that. Monster sound to it, too bad the stunt drivers break it every week. And just last week they crashed it into a wall and messed up a body panel. F'ing morons.

They said was it was a GM 5.7l aluminum V8 which implies a 350 SBC or LS1/6. The thing weighed in at like 2.5 tons though and was drivable and got some pretty get performance figures if I remembered correctly so it would need a seriously stout LS1/6 or SBC to get it moving like that.

Well if you want them to stop breaking it you could perhaps slip up and accidentally tell me where its kept and if it has a key just leave it in the sun visor
