The chute in the back just kills the look for me. It probably is badass on the strip, but its no street car to me.

That's about as street worthy as a lawnmower

thats not a street car... not with that Rock succer inner turbo mounted like that..

SaleenGT2001 · Mar 9, 2007

its still driven on the street. and it will pass inspections somehow. that makes it a street car to me!

um yea i should post pictures of a turbo off my S4 when something (unknown) got sucked into it. That should definatly not be run on the street with that turbo the way it is.

Is it just me or does it sound like he only revved it to like 5k on the dyno?

I felt the same way! His turbo wasn't even spooling to full boost, you could hear it. Sounds like he was just playing with the damn dyno

Just because you can drive a car on the street doesnt make it a street car and who ever passed that car in inspections was blind or stupid. I would love to see that car on the highway when a stone gets sucked into the turbo. I hate to sayit but there are very few cars that are streetable running low 11- 10s when your running mid 9s there aint no way in hell you are.

My friend had an 03 Cobra (he sold it Sunday ) that was a LOW 11 sec car, ran a best of 11.1x @ 12x mph. He could spin the tires on the car at a 70mph roll with MT DRs on it. His car was streetable but still VERY dangerous on the street. Now imagine a car that runs over 1.5 secs faster in the 1/4 mile. Sorry but the car is not streetable. Very cool and very fast but not a street car.

If it passes inspection and you drive it on the street, I don't see why it's not a street car, although that video left alot to be desired.

Looks a little like this:

Just because you're able to pass inspection, doesn't mean the car is streetable. Not based on the power band we all just witnessed. That thing looks like it would be a total PITA to driver under anything but WOT. And not to mention once you're running a cage....the whole "street car" arguement kinda goes out the window. Hell....you could throw a set of cats on nearly anything and call is a "steet car".

Going to back the boost down a little and drive it on the roads more now!!!!!!

I have two precautions on driving it on the road. 1) I am going to put a speed grill in, so that should stop a lot of the bigger stuff. 2) I have seen before, but I am having a hard time finding, a screen that fits over the opening that acts like a filter.

I found these answers to all of your questions about the car being streetable in the thread posted above somewhere.

SaleenGT2001 · Mar 10, 2007

he drove it to the store yesterday to buy a drink. my buddy that was iwth him said it rides and drives like a normal cobra.

That's not true, at all IMO.... Just because a car can run those times, doesn't mean you're ALWAYS flooring it, always in boost, always applying all the 600+rwhp ALL THE TIME. Streetable means it can retain street manners in daily driving (doesn't cam too much, isn't too noisy, is comfy, doesn't have a super obstructive cage, runs on pump gas reliably, doesn't shear belts or blow anything up on a regular basis).
