Syclone AWD World record 8. 76/161 mph
This weekend we was at Kjula Raceway. It was a test and tune weekend. Saturday was good weather, Sunday was gonna rain, so we only had one day to tune. The track was ok, but not fully prepped and superglued, but it was good enough for us, compared to the street :) We got 5 rounds, 4 of them was 8´s Of course we are running E85.=)

1991 GMC syclone 17k original miles, 100% original paint, original tires with no plugs which have never been dismounted from rims for any reason, truck is 100% stock and has NEVER been modified or altered, wheels are perfect with no rash what-so-ever, 2 local owners with every possible piece of documentation from day one including original owners name and phone number. I have the original two keys, all books and manuals and I even have the original plate frame from the dealership that is no longer in business! One of the nicest you will ever see and it has to be the most documented Syclone in the country!
As performance emerged from its slumber in the late '80s and early '90s, it took on many forms. Cheap gas meant that the legendary V-8 was but one option of many; technology developed in darker times meant that computer controls and turbocharging were out of their infancy and well into their adolescence. Front-wheel-drive performance was available, as was rear-wheel drive. It was inevitable that all-wheel-drive performance would come around too.
One of the legends to emerge from that second wave of American performance is the GMC Syclone. The GMC S-15-based Syclone pickup was a 1991-'92 proposition only, wearing sheetmetal that had been around since the early '80s. Still, the spec sheet excites: 15 pounds of turbocharged, intercooled Boost through a 4.3-liter V-6 to the tune of 280 horsepower, and getting that power to four tractive wheels, was a two-fold recipe for performance. Between the turbo's inherent tweakability and the insane number of parts available for the V-6, the sky seemed the limit. (Stock Syclones are said to have more guts than a lighter 300hp Corvette, but an unwritten GM mandate that Corvette would remain performance king was in place.)
The sticker for the Syclone was around $25,000, pretty heady money in the early '90s, but access to Corvette-like performance for between $5,000 and $10,000 less than the all-American plastic fantastic got performance fans thinking beyond mere passenger cars. (Syclone's silly spelling was courtesy of Mercury, which retained rights to the legendary Cyclone tag.) Chunky ground effects, 16-inch alloy wheels and tires, and a color choice limited to black sent an ominous visual message to those in the know.

Burning rubber with AWD syclone
Sweden rainway=( 2012. We went to a test and tune today. Of course it was raining again, so no testing :( This is Sweden. But when we were travelling back home the weather started to get better so we decided to test the car on the street. Guess who has a big smile on his face? :) All I can say is that this V6 monster running on E85, burned all 4 rubbers 450 feet. This is power!

My friends LS1 STS rear mount turbo Ta (6psi tuned by Vengence racing) was running 8.3s this day but blew it off the line on this run. This is the same Ta that was on Pass Time at Atlanta Dragway!! Same Tune!! 12.5s on the show! His trap speed was 92 MPH!! You can see him in my rear view mirror!!
