If you want to go fast you need a light AWD car. A Datsun S30 with AWD swap might be worth looking into. You could also see if you could do AWD swaps on some of the smaller European cars like a Fiat or something.

i know you can do a AWD swap on the focus RS strictly because they use that car in WRC. it would be nice if you can swap in a blown 5.4 to go with it.

Call me a ricer, but I love the old school jap cars. The 510 looks bad ass lowered, on some black Fiskes, with that ugly old school brown paint.

You can get it into the high 8's with a little bit of tuning. Funny how one of the fastest cars in the game is a Datsun 510 economy car lol.

I remember reading that someone had done an LS6 swap in an Aveo or something like that. Maybe that means you can swap the 5.4 into the Focus. That would be pretty cool I think. People swap V8s into Focus' all the time in real life, so I would figure you could in the game. Only about 5 more hours to get off work, and go home to see if its possible.

Launch it off the limiter in 4th. That is when it really rolls out.

Me, Cragar, and BadassTAwS6 did some drag racing last night (1/4,1/2, and mile). We also did some roll racing on the benchmark ring. The Veyron couldn't come back on the 510 until 220+ mph from a 60 punch

You should have received a card with a redeemable code inside the case where the instruction manual is. This is for the Benchmark Ring track(s) and some cars as well.

I just set the 510 up with a 2 speed trans (kind of like a powerglide,) and a 6.00 rear gear. I launch it at 8k, it spins a little and as soon as it hooks I floor it. I haven't spent much time tuning it but it's gone 8.77x so far.

Should be there under multiplayer.

What seems to be awry is the 2-player mode in splitscreen...I wanted to race my kids this weekend and it seems the only way to play 2-player is over Xbox live.

a few buddies and I got a Z06 with the small twin turbo setup, cams and suspension to go a 10.59 @ 144ish...think the car makes like 700ish or something like that.

there is def a fine line between bogging and blowing the tires out.

they also have a datsun that runs 9.00's

You can put the V12 in the Gallardo and make the same power in a lighter car

I also have an extra new copy if someone wants it. $55? (Houston area only)

I'll have to try that. I'm not even sure if I have the transmission for it yet.

Has anyone modded the rx7 yet? I wonder which motor makes the most power (2 rotor vs 3 rotor).
