he has built a very fast car, that is not your average FB . i've seen another video of that car against a 350z, with similar results, heh.

an S2000 isn't exactly a fast straight-line car...that FB can take on much faster cars than that

than that
Prolly the biggest understatement of the year(no offence to you). Car has some sick 4 link rear suspension, with 4 pot H/S FC calipers all around. The cost of the calipers alone is more than most people pay for an FB. Hard core stuff. If memory serves me right, he wasnt as fast as jesus' turbo fb 3 years ago though, at the nopistons meet in NJ at sussex county fair grounds.or was that jesus' car? darn im getting old
