IMO The combination of this car and Taniguchi are unbeatable, and even if it is beaten they will come back with something even more fearsome.

Oh BTW HKS Offer a "street tuned" version of this car on their JP website at around $50,000USD!

I'm pretty sure you've all heard about this to death but I just wanted to post this stuff up because it's too damn cool for me to ignore!

Ah, yes, if I am incorrect in any of these stats or times please feel free to correct me.
