my best so far is a 16.2
I'm hoping to get into the 15's once I get a couple of issues sorted.
even a 15.99 I'll be happy with.

C'mon kids gather round,
there's a new sensation hitting town,
It's moving straight, low to the ground,
it'll pick you up when your feeling down.

Baaaah humbug. Using all those other engines is cheating.
Back in the times when I did the 14's there wasnt a VW powered (street) bus doing anything like that. VW trends or hot vws did a story on it. The quickest in the US was only 16 seconds or something. A lot slower.

Indian's has to be in the running. I 'borrowed' it for a run out the other week. It's a 3.8V6 Supercharged, with extras (hes not telling). Not that I'm up on 'hot cars', but can only be described as having your own pet gorilla with a set of blue balls. It's a scary fast, and it corners, stops and handles like it's on the 'rails' as they say. Massive amounts of low down grunt, and more than enough go in any gear you like.

My daul cab is the grey one with the 4L alloy v8 thats lifted with 33 &1/2 inch wheels on the back. I sold my old blue 2L dual cab to buy this little beauty. All i done to it is put uni chip and k & n filter and she flies. I am on to my second gearbox though.
