First of all, nice Video.. You may want to ask before you post video off of someone elses website....
Second, lets see some of you eclipse guys take an old school motor designed in the 1930s and even come close... Anyone can take new technology and make it a little better.... Aircooled VW are a way of life... We get ZERO love from big aftermarket Co. yet we are still able to kick but at import events.... Most of you see on our cars is home brewed.....
@ieatchickenbrains That eclipse is .40 seconds slower? And you say the VW blows. The VW is .40 seconds faster! So if you put them against each other, head to head, the eclipse would lose by .40 seconds. At that kind of speed 0.4 seconds is a huge deal. Losing the fiberglass body would probably not make up nearly a half of a second. Remember, You have now been peed on!
@ttchutch Honestly, the Eclipse weights a decent chuck more than the Paradise. I personally prefer the Paradise, but no one can argue the fact that without the extra weight on it the Eclipse would most likely take the victory. But, we'll never know for sure (or will we?). O_o
this car fuckin blows compared to that eclipse. this is only like .40 seconds faster and its cuz its made of all tube chasi and the car isnt even in the same class as that eclipse all together. if you put them next to eachother on the line heads up and made a real fuckin body for this vw it would get pissed on like r kelly on that 14yr old and everyone here knows it
consider this dipshit, brent rau is using an aircooled engine, putting out twice the amount of power, and has more engineering advantages then paradise vw has using a type 1.
braddas dats a vw engine you can hear it vw was racing for years now. who said they wouldnt catch up with the tech of today watch out 5.0 lovers webbers are for winners
HMMM is this confirmed a 4cylinder engine? I cant see the engine in this video...VW makes 5 cylinders too, dont they? Is this diesel? Why does he say it runs better in the heat?
I sure dont hear much about this car...I hear way more about the 6 second Eclipse 2.0 liter
Then why does the anouncer say it runs better in the heat???? I bet that is a Diesel or Methanol E85 car or something. Let see the engine...The Eclipse has videos showing the whole engine setup.
Why do I NEVER hear about this Car? It seems like something is up or else you would hear more people raving about it.
Its confirmed its a flat 4 vw air cooled engine. I cant listen to it cause I am at work, but the announcer probably ment it gets the best times when its hot, like it can hook up better cause the track is more sticky...?
Dude if brent rau put his 4 cylinder mitsu engine in this Jr. Dragster rail car he would probably run a 4 sec 1/4 mile hahahaha. Brent's 2 liter runs a 6.86 and it weights 2300 pounds still!
I guess I'll forgive you anyway...

This isn't even a car anymore... The Eclipse is far better hands down. That thing does not even have a damn roof on it.

the paradise is 2 wheels and a motor. the eclipse is pretty much a full blown car.

@ttchutch but the fact that the vw weighs considerably less also has to be factored in.

@VaeVictus420 Really name one chassis car that goes "fast" I have yet to see a 7 second VW other than a gutted out 1600lb bettles those don't count.

@LS7TT so if a car doesn't run below 7 seconds in a quarter mile, it isn't fast? Last time i heard that, i fell off my dinosaur.
