Message : I just pulled the back issue of Turbo again... And actually the owner of the car is (was?) someone by the name of Tim Leiss from Valpariso, Indiana.

: The story is the centerfold cover story in the October 1996 issue. It's a '91TT (nicknamed 'Cheetah') he is (was) running a 34-to-36-jet NOS system that allows 90 to 100 additional hp to be dialed in at will, and MANY other mods as well. ...At the time of the article, he was running the 1320 (1/4 mile) in 11.21 @ 118.7 mph. ...His 60ft time was 1.60 sec. ...NOT BAD! *L* ...Anyone happen to know what hapened with his car? ...Where's it at now in terms of performance, etc.?

: ...C ya!

: :-P

It sounds like the Yellow Cheetah can launch really well because of the low 11's. However, it looks like his mph is a little low for 620 horsepower. 118 is what a 500 Hp car would get.
