Tamiya Volvo 850R estate in street form

One of my all time favorite "sleepers".......my friend had one that was not stock, at all. He took it to the drag strip and received much laughter from the crowd when he was up against a 70's El Camino. The El Camino did it's large burnout to the crowds cheers, my friend motored quietly around the burnout pit which received more laughter.....the laughter became silent when he brought up the rpm's and the once quiet wagon sounded like a lear jet. He blew thru the gates at an 11:26 at a 118 mph. The crowd went wild. The el camino lost BTW.

Great build of an iconic car to me.
