Get ready to see some taillights!

If that van is driven by a soccer mom late to drop her kid off at preschool, you don't have a chance.

Do you think I could take him, he says 80s vettes are slow. I'm thinking of maybe putting a K&N on it and removing my passenger seat for weight just to be safe.

Do you guys have any other help? I need to beat him so he will stop ragging on me in front of the other guys.

dont do it man! those things are scary fast.....

it has the original 4 cylinder turbo engine in it....

being a turbo Lebaron owner, i`m familar with what these engines are capable of... for such litle money invested...

my 89 Lebaron went 8.63 in the 1/8 mi. with only an aftermarket calibration, bigger injectors, drag radials, and exhaust system... the head, intake/exhaust manifolds and turbo were factory pieces, that i ported.

here`s a link to Pauls site...
