I am interested to see what video you are referring to. I know that any smart with a gsxr motor will pull the srt-4 but I would love to also learn that there are power mods that can be done to the stock engine or turbo on the 450.

IMO, the only way the SRT-4 could beat a STi is if the driver was Racer X or Tak Fujiwara or some crazy manga driving hero. ..otherwise, real life? no way.

ANYTHING. ..and i mean ANYTHING, could beat a smart. I haven't even driven it yet and I can say that without hesitation.

The driver of the Ferrari had a reaction time off the line of an 85 year old woman on medication.

Hope she still has a valid driver's license : )

Yeah, I noticed that too, but didn't want to say anything. Makes for a better story.

Yeah! Short races can lead to interesting results.....I have a buddy who regularly bets guys who have tuner/muscle cars he can beat their ride on foot, but he gets to set the distance----he's never lost yet. His secret is he only races them 10-20 yds. Most cars however much hp, especially when driven by a wheel spinning amateur, get off the line extremely slow.........he's made hundreds of dollars doing this.
