The ET isn't what impresses me, it's the trap speed. 145mph is
flying...that's enough mph for low 9's. That car will dominate damned
near every car it encounters on the street. Different story at the track, but
that's no drag car.

That guys local to me, his name is Joe. He used to have a twin supercharged diablo that caught on fire racing someone on 9A and burnt down. He then got an sl65(I think) twin turbo mercedes with a few mods that made 571hp/707trq to the wheels. After that he moved up to the Ford GT. Its one of the fastest cars in the area. He's looking at getting a 3.3L bower from whipple and making over 1k to the wheels.

Here are the diablo pictures.

Yeah that lambo was one of only 12 made. It was number 8 of 12. This guy doesnt really race on a track he's mostly a street racer. His car is set up for top end not ET that's why his times were not as fast as they could be.

The beauty of that car is that it's already setup to handle that power in terms
of handling, stopping, aerodynamics, etc. We all build our cars to make tons of power, but rarely are they capable of handling it outside of a straight line.
