If posting the fastest FR-class time at Tsukuba wasn't enough, Hayashi-san has proven just how good his S14 is by drag racing it where it posted a 10.1-second second pass. Even in the 0- to 1000-meter sprint it managed a respectable 18.5-second run while it can reach 307 km/h flat out, probably only restricted by the gear ratios in the HKS transmission. With results like this it's no wonder this S14's development has ended. There's nothing left for the Silvia to do. Saurus took up the challenge to build a fast circuit car and they achieved their goals-and then some!
