Fastest/Most powerfull N/A FTO

Post by spetz »

Who here has this?
And any other info on other FTO's around the world making records?
Only N/A, without NOS, and list of upgrades would be greatly appreciated.

that would be pretty hard to say because not many FTOs here have been timed over the qtr mile... some have been dyno'd in various levels of modifications, but I won't get into that too deeply because sooner or later this entire thread will be ruined by mindless dyno debates... :roll::P

what we really need are official timeslips from the track ;)

hmm,

In that case how do FTO's compete with other cars on the road?

I noticed that when driving one, with 2 other people in the FTO, it was only just beating a V6 holden VT.

So, FTO owners, what is the most impressive kill you made on the road with your FTO's?

there's heaps of threads on traffic light drags ;)

most "impressive" wings are usually against cars who screw up launches or miss a gear...

i'm just happy to have a GTST slower than me on the race track and wakefield :)

Luckily, there's the Great FTO 1/4 Mile League web page! :)

http://www.mitsubishi-fto.net/main.htm (link on left)

All are confirmed with timeslips. Loads of standing quarters listed in the Overall League Table at the bottom. And two of the four fastest GPX are Aussies. :D
