If Speed Racer couldn't race anymore, what do you think would become of the Mach 5?

I think the Mach 5 would have a few dark years of being run down and addicted to off market parts that make it look more and more of a ricer car. Then he would rediscover the religion of sleek, original design and coolness and preach this message to cars everywhere.

Why wouldn't you make an Tempo into a race car?...It's the perfect sleeper, and like it or not, I've seen quite a few made to race...\n\nDid you change the Onboard Diagnostic System?...Because it should be OBD-I...

Not very many. Speed = $$$$. $$$$ = low production rates. Out of the handful that do Bugatti, Mclaren F1, and Ferrari come to mind.

maybe in California, they have stricter emissions laws than anywhere else. I don't see them getting banned, but i do know that the new technology with 4-stroke dirtbikes is making the 2-strokes pretty much obsolete. If you watch supercross you'll notice there is only one team out of like 60 that is still running a 2-stroke. the rest are 4's.I personally like the top end power and sound of a 2 stroke better( i ride a CR250), but i have ridden a CRF450 and it was alot less tiring to ride so i can see why even the pros use them now. Anyway, with emission laws becoming stricter and stricter, it wouldn't surprise me if the 2-strokes do get banned sooner than later.  It will be a sad day for me when they do.

Racing head, racing cam and crank, racing connecting rod and piston, new racing valves and springs, get the engine ported and have the engine blueprinted, racing carb, and convert it to run on methanol, remove the governor and for short bursts of power, a mapp gas injector, or some nos, and of course a billet flywheel. OR just buy a fully built briggs racing engine....

The speed limit down pit road (not totally just put the commit line back farther) my poor boy Robby G. keeps gettin screwed by that rule!!!!!  I would also change it to limit the number of cars per team, those Roush buttheads win just cause they have more time on the track and can pool their findings, totally not fair for single or two car teams!!!!!

well if the Corvette ZO6 will out perform the Viper in all Categories i would say the concept Corvette would Stomp the $#!+ out of the stock Viper

I don't remember very well I but I red somwhere about a F1 car beating a F16 fighter on a 2km distance.\n\nLet's take an example: \nRoughly a 747 weight about 400tons and has 4 engines of 25tones of thrust. This would lead to a maximum acceleration of 0.25Gs at take off. I'm sure a fast car can do better than that

I would love to think that we would but unfortunately I don't think that will happen.  One of the reasons would be to get away from people like Speedfreak.

Anything with 15 speeds is likely 20 years old. Good for what ? Probably not.

Street racers are small-d¡cked losers, I'm all for the cops confiscating their cars and throwing them in jail.\n\nwanna race - go to a track, keep it off the streets.\n\nas far as the movie - I hope families of vitcims of street racing file a class action suit and bankrupt those irresponsible Hollywood shills responsible for this juvenille tripe..\n\nand don't even get me started in Lil Bow Wow!!!!!

My vote is for the Pontiac. That is one sexy fast car. I'd love to own one.\n\nForget Mustang, unless it's Saleen.

Lets hope we don't get them anytime soon. We have enough trouble with people not being able to control automobiles and trucks. Can you imagine the havoc if people were out flying around with the same degree of care and skill they use in their vehicles? \n\nMaking things fly takes a lot more energy than just making them move. Flying cars would hardly be considered green machines.

Davey was amuch better driver. He was the last of the old school racers. We lost a lot of entertainment when he died in the helicopter crash. It would have been Great to watch him for all these years. He was alot better than Jeff Gordon.

I think Nascar needs the following improvements:\n\n1) A track that isn't ALL lefts or rights! Mix it up some, fellas!\n2) Land Mines\n3) Concrete pillars that randomly eject up from the track\n4) Speed bumps\n5) No more yellow flags! They're professional drivers - let 'em navigate around car parts!!!!

Since the Ford Crown Vic. is still using it (for 2006 and 2007 models) I'll guess Ford is will be one of the last.\n\nhmmm. the Thunderbird is on the same track...uses torque tube to deliver power to the rear differential.\n\nso many cars no longer have the trans-drive-shaft-differential setup that was "conventional" for so many years...hard to think of trans-driveshaft-CV-frontwheels as conventional now-a-days.
