That you could make nearly any car that fast. Not impressive imo.

No issue that a standard nova is pants or even one with a RedTop (XE?) in it, but this hasn't been made to go down slippy roads with your foot to the floor, it has one use 1/4 mile times, threads posted before regarding novas have been wow i've got 200bhp in my road nova, yes you might have but is that of anymore use down a country road than 120bhp?

hahah!

I dont really need to answer that. Be here all day.

Must press on.

Well, I've got the time to read it. So go on, why is that Nova - a car that can do an 11sec 1/4mile - a crap car?

If we were talking about some chavved up monstrosity then I'd think differently, but that car looks pretty good as a 1/4mile weapon.
 
god how pedantic you are.

it looks crap, it IS crap, its STILL a Nova, it would handle like a barge, and its totally and utterly impractical.

ITS CRAPPPPP get over it.

If I had a fiat panda that could do an 11sec 1/4 mile it would STILL BE CRAP.

Argue the toss all you want. I dont care one way or the other!

How many 1/4 mile tracks have bends in them?

I agree it is impractical, the same way any F1 car is so omg it must suck its got no boot, its a track car you DONT take it shopping.

I would love to see a panda do a 11sec 1/4 mile that would just be :cool:
 
Thanks for sharing rcrossco_1, i feel truly enlightened... :rolleyes: ****


I must admit i don't get the 1/4 thing at all. far too e-penis for my liking.

However that does look mean as **** and hilarious with the massive drag slicks :D

Since when do looks and handling matter on a 1/4 mile?

Im no fan of polishing turds as ive said a thousand times on here, a 200bhp road going Nova is for taking the mickey out of but one thats been sorted to the 1/4 and actually works has to get kudos.
 
Be interested to know what times it would run on road tyres. Those tyes must make a huge difference, how big i dont know.
