Default Ten Of The Best came to Dubai

It said:

" The biggest streetcar shootout in the UK comes to the Middle East. Cars from all over the region compete to find Arabia's quickest and most versatile drivers"

We raced in 1/4 runs, Top Speed runs (600m) and a fast handling course.
Car were devided into FWD, RWD,AWD and Off-Road cars. You could have any car, any modification as long as it was street registered.

Here are a few of the RWD competitors that did not manage to beat my pour little turbo S on Hoosiers :







Look at this swap








And of course my fellow s2k brothers:





Plus there was a 2004 911 GT3 on Michelin Cups and a few other more powerfull cars.
Nevertheless, I took the trophy for fastest RWD car on the handling course



And here is the video where you can see the runs of all s2000s on the handling course and 1/4

JUN powered LEMON GT-R33





Fastest cars of the event was this 2.2L Celica swapped AWD Corolla by FENSPORT







It did well on handling and 1/4 as well, very clean all round set-up






One of the best paint jobs I have ever seen in Dubai (if not the best)

And this is something, I got to see only in cartoons



That hight 9sec. GT-R32 with 33 front was just nuts, here is a small video showing the most powerfull cars of the event:

Top Cars VIDEO

Hope you enjoy it as much as we did

EDIT:

This thing impressed me a LOT...a C6 with twin-turbos vom LINGERFELTER

He said it makes 750whp
However, it ran a Porsche 911 GT2 (more otrgue than Carerra GT ) on the drag strip and by 600m the Corvette was 4-5 cars ahead
