It's because they have a really steep final gear...

hey LMR, awesome runs, gotta have some balllz to hit those numbers, esp in a 4th gen. What kind of tires are you running on the car that are meant to keep together safely over 250mph? I know the veyron tires are 20 grand for the set so I was just curious if regular Z, or whatever the highest street rating is, are able to hold up at those levels?

Lmr built T56 trans with G-force gear set that was faceplated with Liberty parts by LMR, and the tires are Hoosier R6s, we change them for every event. Almost every car over 220 use the Hoosier R6s. Rear gear is a 2.56.

Good to see significant aero work done on the car. I bet the driver didn't need depends this year.
