Just a few fun pics of Yep, that’s right a Yugo with a wide body kit, big tires and a turbo Chrysler 4 cylinder driving the front wheels and a big Cadillac V-8 mounted in the rear seat area driving the rear wheels! The mastermind behind this thing is Bill Grabel of Valparaiso . Of course he was assisted by the ever inventive Jim McKamey.

Wasn't there a production race or rally car somewhere with 2 mid-mounted V6 engines, one in front of the rear axle driving the rear wheels and one behind the front axles driving the front wheels?

I think it was Japanese, but I can't remember what it was.

i know of 2 killer twin engine cars. the suzuki Escudo( vitara) from the Pikes leaks hill climb , know in granturismo, and the twin engine hyundai Tiburon in the Sport compact car challenge 2 years ago... 2 350 hp yurbocharge, methanol, auto tranny drag machine, that does the 1/4 in the low 10sec.... the 2 transaxle arent connect so it isn't a trac machine like the Escudo
