Heck, I'll just lighten my celica to 1700 lbs, do some major engine building and put a T3/T4 Turbo in and save close to a million. That Leblanc looks like it's all race car anyway and not a luxury cruiser. I get my kicks on EC.

Apparently there's a guy that built 4-cylindar drag cars whose trap speed in the 1/4 was around 200 miles an hour. He was the fastest man in the world for 8 years until somebody knocked him out of that title. I'll call to get that guy's name again.
