I guess with AWD, no wheelie bars are required.

Don't really think back up lights are required at the drags.

He hung here while building it, if it is the one from Poland. He needed 4WD on the terrible tracks they have over there.

Too bad the times and speeds weren't posted, although his reaction time needs a little work.

The 1/4 mile times were around 8.88@288kmph with the massive T91 Turbo. I have read that he is pushing 1400-1500hp! He used the AWD setup outta the GMC Syclones/Typhoons, I guess. I read that somewhere. And yeah, his reaction time on that green is a lil delayed.
