Wow. That thing is seriously moving!

I laugh when 1300HP is not enough.

It gets squirrely when he really gets on it.

145mph and sideways.(on very low boost)

Their 1800hp Mosler looks downright scary. Mosler's weigh 2200lbs with an LS1, that thing can't be much over 2300lbs.
That is my dream car.

Well I dont know about 1300hp being unreliable for a 2JZ. It has been done many of times and there are 2JZ cars out there with over 100 passes with 1500hp...

From what I understand 2JZ's making that kind of power have to be rebuilt and looked over very often. I remember SW saying he has his disassembled and checked over after like every pass or every other couple of passes.

Pretty sick. Finding the 1/4 ET is a guess at best, however had traction been on point on a 5.21 run thats about an 8.24 ET in the 1/4.
