Switzer's response was a resounding "yes!" , which brings us to the car pictured here - an 800 hp , all-wheel drive "yes!" that takes advantage of the 997's superior traction and shorter gearing to deliver staggering acceleration figures. conjecture sub 3-second 0-60 runs and 1/4 mile times consistently under 10.5 , and you institute to procure the idea: this car is a monster.
