Cool car. I remember someone else posting this; and Zville claimed to own it, or have driven it on the 'Ring or something.

Nice performance numbers w/ 220 hp. Good lord, would that be a blast.

yeah, you can get the v-tak, or LSJ. Of course the honda has less power (when you look at real world crank hp vs underrated whp, just like comparing the rl or ss/sc to thr rsx or si, and also another slight advantage, the cheaper american powerplant absolutely slaughters the v-tak in the torque dept.
