Drag racing times

[Bernard Littau]

I don't know about that Taka, I'd be willing to bet Javad could do an 11
second S4tt for $30k not including the price of the car.

As far as I know, there is nothing "special" about Javad's car or what he
did.  And that is a very good thing -- there is no magic:  mostly off the
shelf stuff, some carefully considered fabrication, the use of facts instead
of hearsay, and dogged attention to detail.

I would have to guess that Javad's biggest limitation to even more stunning
drag times is that it's not a dedicated drag car.
