I promise to do everything I can to make sure that we only allow cars like this one at our events:

If you can't push at least 1000W RMS of power from your speakers, roll on 20's, and have your car grace the cover of awesome import tuner mags, you're nothing to me.

There was a car there? I thought you were going to introduce cheerleaders to the events.

The intake on the top is to bring cool air to the intercooler. The one on the side, the right side is to cool the amp. the left side is for the engine intake.
The port of subwoofer is connected to the exhaust system, the pulsating effect of it help scavenged the exhaust gas of the engine. The highest Torque value is achieved when listening to Led Zeppelin.
Last night I decided to go the green way. So the car will run with ethanol and will be Hybrid. It will used a new batteries technology.
The batteries are: UraPlutoIridium they are lightweight and pack an incredible amount of energy for the size. That will boost the power output to 675hp but more importantly the torque curve will be fairly flat starting at 700 at 1000rpm. With the added energy available I will be able to add a second Amp. and subwoofer that will bring the output to 3000W. Led Zeppelin will sound even better.
The added energy will enable me to used a new technology to help the car stick to the ground. A coil, of room temperature superconductors will be install under the car, it will be powered by a special GPScontroler that measure the Earth electromagnetic field. The electromagnetic field created by the coil will interact with the Earth electromagnetic field to stick the car to the ground. When driving in a straight line the coil will be un-powered so any foreign metal material that will have stick to the coil when in a turn will be released.
Carbon fiber and Unobtanium will be used everywhere possible to keep the weight of the car down, the target weight is around 2000lbs.
