well, traction is not an issue when all you do is highway racing and the oh look at me I got bigger cojones bragging rights. at least that's what I used to do back then, not anymore. I live in OK now :-( ;-)

The Scion Speed car did make impressive numbers, but it was blatantly smoking in the last vid they posted of the 420hp dyno pull. I know they said it was pushing coolant, but I have my own opinion.

Is this a kit that will go in production? Can someone sum up the article? What are they talking about in it?

And about a better picture I will try to take it. (The one about the burnout)

Just to let you guys know on an update:
The car on it's first track run took on a new stock corvette and beat it.
tC - 12.9
corvette - 13.1
Some weeks after that race the car broke I don't remember why, and last I heard the engine was rebuilt to be bulletproof so expect to see new numbers before the end of the year.
By the way I know this info because a friend of mine has a S2000 with 540 WHP and his turbo kit was done by the same two shops that made the tC.
