whoa... i can't believe it

not too big of a d/l but check this one out...

talk about using what you got.

That's the infamous 12 Sec Astrovan. I've heard of it a few times, and funny thing. I was just thinking of it tonight, as because I saw few of them. Thanks for bringing that up. I was actually just about to look it up too. Nice vid. Late...

yea, i just saw it for the first time tonight... crazy stuff... i had to watch it twice to make sure i wasn't crazy... a 12 sec astrovan... who woulda thunk it.

I like the 9 sec geo...thing takes off like a friggen rocket. I've seen that van vid a few times, its pretty insane too...

thats not an astrovan...thats either a caravan or a town n country...

Bet you wouldn't see that one coming in a street race. I could imagine how a camaro owner would be pissed off.

My first car was a '88 Dodge Caravan. What a POS - my friends and I called it the "ghetto cruiser." It had 245K on it, albeit a rebuilt motor and trans just before I got it.

Even stock, that thing could lay rubber pretty easy. I even beat my friends '90 cavalier with it. Fastest I hit was 115 on the freeway before I became afraid of the severe shaking occuring.

With a worked motor and turboes I could see how it could hit 12's.

So - respect the minivan. I still don't think I could pick any chics with it no matter how fast it is, though.

Cheers.

if you need a car to pick up chicks then there must be something wrong with you

That is way old news.

That is a Dodge Caravan or a Plymouth Voyager. You could get them stock with a Turbo I. My dad owned a Chrysler Town & Country with the Turbo I. It made a great sleeper. You can take one of those vans and put a few grand into the engine and be in the 12s. When Chrysler turbo-charges a vehicle they don't screw around. In fact there is a guy I know around here that has a 12 second Caravan as well.

You really do have to love that though, fake wood and all. I can't think of a better sleeper.

Hey Poly, what does that Caravan happen to look like by chance? Late...

That would be his van.

Yea, my neighobors own a brown one..until they blew it up..lol.

ya those dodge turbo cars rock. it would be fun to have one but they are so rare that youd be hard pressed to find one worth owning. and the turbo k cars were a way better sleeper than the van. seriously its a k car. ive seen video of them running 10's and 9's so they do have some potential

There are some that are pretty rare, but for the most part you can find a turbo Daytona pretty damn easy. There are a ton of those. It mostly depends if you want the Turbo I, II, III, or IV. Gary Dovovan has a Reliant that runs 10s, and we even have a guy with a Charger in the 8s. There are a ton of guys in the 11s and 12s. It doesn't cost a lot to make these cars fast.

lol....K cars rule.

what part of the counrty are you in? there are literally no turbo dodge's up here for sale. im in New England

I’m in Utah and there isn’t a ton around here but you can find a turbo Daytona if you look for one. I had to fly all the way to Ohio to get my current GTC and drive it back. The eastern half of the country seems to have a lot more TD's than the west. You'll find a lot for sale in Ohio and New Jersey.

Well, some people say that it refers to any car that uses the K frame. However, to me a K-car is a K-bodied car such as the K-bodied Chrysler LeBaron, Dodge Aries, Plymouth Reliant, and Dodge K. They are the boxy cars that you normally see old people driving. Here is a picture:

btw the van bested a 12.65 5 years ago , it ran a 12.65 that time and that was a Z28

and i thought a K-car was like a dodge omni and a VW rabbit...?

thanks =D

Is the K car in any way connected with the reason the band "Reliant K" is named just so? Just wondering...

I had heard that there was some connection, but never found out what it was.

my friend has a 2.5 turbo shadow, but he looked for about 7 months and he went to three diff states to find the right one. and even that one needed a whole rebuild from top to bottom
