O.k For those of you who don't know or care the Magnum T.P.I. is the multi thousand dollar buildup that seems to be going nowhere. When GMHTP get the thing running it is supposed to be a 12 second monster The Pontiac G8 is the prototype V8 that takes the current Grand Prix body, and adds a LS1 with all wheel drive. So in a drag race, which would win?

I do not think that magnum TPI will every be able to make a full pass. So I give the win by default to the G8.

GMHTP should change the name of that car from Magnum to Christine. That car is possesed. I give my vote to the G8. Id love to see what an Ls1 will go will all wheel drive traction.
