I worked with a guy who had one of those. Ran high 10s. Best part was when he got it in a burnout all you would hear is the turbo.

The best sleeper is a GMC Cyclone. 4.3L Turbo with AWD. Looks like an old man truck or an earler version of the S10 Extreme.

Knew another guy with a 1992 V8 S10. Had a 350 pushing about 450hp or so. It literally looked like an old mans truck because it was an old mans truck. Just an old man who has yet to grow up (And is the master of smack talk).

When I bought my bike I *almost* bought a Grand National instead. It was an '87 with a ton of work done, it ran 10 flat on ET Slicks. The guy sent me some pictures of the car, the first one was a launch with both front tires about a foot off the ground. I chose the bike because I would have had to sell my truck to get the Grand National, and I didn't want it as a daily driver.
