truely amazing, but that is no 6 second street car... that is a car that in race trim on a prepped track can run 6's but on the streets my protege could probably beat it down a 1/4 mile stretch of road because his tires would be spinning 200 mph and the car would hardly be moving.

stunning none the less!

Larry's car was unchanged from it's Drag Week trim, and had only been outfitted with a new pair of Hoosier DOT legal "slicks"

Sounds to me like the slicks were for the drag events, I bet he doesn't usually run slicks.

Well, the fact that he drives it on the street, at least sometimes, makes the whole thing totally beerworthy.


I'd kinda like to do forced induction on a V8 , in something that handles, someday...

ShyT...

Thanks for sharing.

The commentator redoctober its retarded. About the usual import vs. domestic comments, that we get day in day out.

Nobody can change that, domestics dominate giving the best quarter miles times. The way that I see is similar to boxing. To me the imports are like featherweight fighters, while domestics are heavy category. Totally different categories, but that does not mean a heavy boxer/fighter can get his ass kicked.

Regardless of the power and achievements of domestics, no way in hell I would wrench or own one of those engines. At least for my budget and mechanical orientation, I stick with my Mazda 323 with a BP platform. I just love it when I see my humble boosted bp block and cant believe the power it can deliver.

Back to the subject, the video is super cool, I laughed when the other vehicle takes off and halfway on the track he passes the other vehicle as if he is not even moving. I dont know if its me, but... Isn't the racetrack slanted, like goind downhill?

So very true, got a neighbor with a similar car like that. When I went boosted every now and then I would go to a long empty stretch of road to tune/dial the car with the Apex (I know piggy backs are ghetto, but hell they work for me). So he would here the bov when I was testing the Mazda. Next thing I know a few minutes later he takes out his domestic beast and drives by in front of my house and of course revs it right when he passes by the driveway. Dude, (no freakin BS) grabbed my keys, jumped in the Mazda and followed him. My friend was like what the hell you doin?

Anyway, when I saw he had slicks I knew he was done. He accelerates and takes off, I waited a little as his car started waving from side to side, a few seconds later I did a classic drive by all out at 15 psi and his freakin fhukin face was priceless. You bet I looked to see him and his wife dumb**** look. Waited and lined up on the next light and next thing I know he turns toward the gas station.

Guess what, he does not pass by my house anymore, LOL!

And to give some spice to the thread,

I got giddy too when I saw that, kind of like the Veyron vs Audi R8 vid I posted up from YouTube a month back.

I think the track is level but inclined after the 1/4 mile to help slow down the cars more before having to heat up the brakes.

there is a local guy around me that has a twin turbo mustang that runs in the 7's on drag radials, see it driving around town every once in a while. pretty easy to spot with a big chute on the back lol.

[tehstocker99]

the guy doesn't touch the car as far as 'trim' goes, he drives it to the track, runs it, packs up and leaves, there are several videos of him out there just cruising around on BIG ASS rear tires, ridiculous achievement and mad props to him, super nice guy, incredible what you can do with enough money

[wgnths]

that is one effing beast i dont care what anyone says lol

[tireboy]

excellent camera work .. that's just nuts...
