This car had a lot of history in Florida in the early 90's.
It was originaly built by William aka 'Columbia' aka the original 'Hard Target' builder/tuner/driver at the time.
It was powered by a 3TC that ran 12.0's on motor and 10.70's on the bottle.
The car was only campained for a very short time by Columbia and was sold to 'Switiche' where it was transformed to rotary power.
With a 13B BP motor Switchie got 10.70's out of it All Motor.
The car was then transfomed into a full chassis race car. It was powered by a 13B PP with a G-force transmission. It ran high 9's all motor and if I'm not mistaken 9.20/30's on the bottle.
Unfortunately the car was totaled at an event here at Moroso.

^^^ Nice post, I was watching those same races last night on GRS. Here's my little contribution.

The most popular car back in the days at Pan America. Rotary guys like me out numbered by piston heads there talking about Sakura's 52 P.S.I!




This was at last 07 Pan American. Whats the story with this twin turbo set up? Did they run it? Do they plan too? Or are they just chillin now making EMS's and have this as a show piece?
