Well executed on the car. Reminds me of Jim Moran's work over at Speed Inc on some of his builds. Spare no expense no detail too small.

A lot of things he talks about we already do:
PIN in a receiver hitch for the parachute
Transbrake/Launch Boost/Ramp Function boost controllers
16 injectors
dual fuel supplies
mini tubs
Datalogger

Some things were really great ideas:
Dual fuel fillers located in the stock location
Rear seats looking stock by thinning them out and remaking them
Use the brake for for launch control

Man, the usable power that is there. So much by just over 6k rpm. That is not even the usually 7000+ motor LS I am used to. Just crazy.

Imagine if it was not badged and the cage was not visible. The look on the new ZL1 and GT500 owners.

Very nice. The shifter looks like it'd be a pain to use.

How does this car/motor compare to the Lambos with the twin turbo set ups? They dyno 1500 or more to the wheels, right? With a smaller motor too I think? I just don't see how they get so much out of the Lambos. Are they running more boost?
This car is nothing to sneeze at by any means, but with near 30lbs I would've thought more like 1400 at the wheels. Similar to the Lambos..
