Not actually a first there is a guy with a car built by livernois that hit 9's earlier this year but he tried keeping it very hush hush since he says he street races for money.


But congrats to Wreck none the less.

holy ****!!! Im over here debating on a v2 cts-v and after seeing this, which could be had for half the price, definitely gonna be looking into this car. Is that a G8GT or a GXP model? also anyone happen to know the specs on this setup? I see a few of the comments on youtube, and seems to be a stock bottom end running a supercharger?

Yep stock bottom end, he says its around 800hp.

Yea my car was 668 on the 4.0 pulley but ran my 10.5@134 on the 3.7 pulley so im sure around high 600's to bottom 700's.Full weight expect for the drag wheels.
