I've had several of those and the Typhoon's. Heck I had a Typhoon that ran 6.90's in the 1/8th. Talk about a sleeper.

it was a blast to drive! with the all wheel drive, i could launch it under boost and it wouldnt spin just put you back in the seat hard! and ive had it dig up asphault on all fours, maybe the tires or the road, but i never had any of my cars dig up aspault. i liked the looks of the factory wheels but i never had them and they are expensive! mine came with vette wheels , but i put the trans am gta wheels on it , because it looked like the syclones in the old ads back in the day, like the red comp trucks.these were supposed to be the fastest productions cars/trucks at the time.

Those were Marlboro Syclones given away by Marlboro I think they gave 10 away. Little power upgrade, painted red, with a targa top and the wheels.
