Forget Boost.. Gimme Hyabusa!!

This is hilarious and didn't even know existed until last night.

Ppl use smart cars and put these crotch rocket engines in them.

Don't believe the power?

Check this vid, I don't want to spoil it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtWeSa3naKk

I actually have a guy I was hanging out with last night that has ridden in one and said it is nuts. He can get one of these engines for about $2000.

AND it is possible in our cars if you are willing to to turn it into a racer/dragster.

I couldn't stop laughing.

One more vid, but of no racing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cV4Hd...eature=related

Nothing new...you guys haven't seen the Geo Metro powered by a Hayabusa motor. It was in the 24 Hours of Lemons.

There is also someone currently making a swap kit for the miata...Here it is...

Get with the times people. Sometimes I feel old and I'm only 24.

Thanks for the sarcasm.

Maybe some of us aren't as cool as you are and didn't realize that this was widespread.

Now, I am glad you shot your e-peen load in here.

Feel better? lol
