It says 18 mph winds. But that's stunning nonetheless

What kind of power is it putting down for a feat like that?

Internet "rumor mill" is saying that this car has already made 2200 rwhp, but was 'turned down' to 1450 rwhp for this pass!

Jesus Christ. I didn't expect anyone to break 260mph anytime soon and they're damn near close to 270mph, with a headwind!
That is insane. The body looks to be stock or close to it.
The Ford GT (and more so the GT40) has always been one of my favorite cars. Now I want one more than ever.

That is insanity.
I also want to see what the underground racing V10 R8-TT will do, supposedly going to be around 1500rwhp

Oh and this pass was done with the motor at 41psi and putting down an estimated 1900rwhp.

Apparently they went 271mph on an unofficial run. Crazy.

Damn, that's just pure beauty... I'd love to go for a ride in that car.

Wonder when any of the Vette guys like Lingenfelter are going to step up the game? I know a few years back they did 228mph, I wanna see em' get up there like that.
