The Big Block Smart Car is back, and this time the setup has been changed around. You may remember this high-powered ultra-compact from earlier in the year when it was ripping off wheelies and sub-12 second quarter mile drag times. Now the car has a new engine, a new clutch, and even a new name according to the Nu Big Thing script on the doors.

The caged machine features some manner of oversize V-8 goodness under its skin. The previous engine used was a 462-cubic-inch behemoth, and there's no word yet on what the father and son team are doing for the new motor.

In the last video, the over-powered Smart ran an 11.72 at 114.43 miles per hour. This time around? The car blasts across the line with an elapsed time of just 10.70 at a speed of 125.80 mph. That's a full second quicker and 11 mph faster!
