No, thats impossible, In the 70's they changed horsepower rating from GROSS
(crank hp, with no accessorys) to NET HP, which i thought was hp at the
wheels. when VW claims 90hp, it has to be NET horsepower according to law. 

thats why all the old musclecars has like 300 horsepower. Big deal, thats
at the crank.

Yeah, it's not had to drive in a straight line man! He didn't miss any
shifts, so..

If you wanna talk weight, I have a 100lb speaker box in the trunk, plus all
my tools and shit!

But I'm guessing that I'm pulling 7.5 and high 15's maybe. My friend got a
gtech for his b=day, so we'll find out!! :)
