Awesome.... Theres a small build of another GT with a lot of custom fab running a F2 head unit on 6speed. Not sure when his deadline is, but it's impressive, and his goals are set high.
253 is INSANE. Whats the second fastest GT after this car? I seem to remember one/maybe two in the 23X MPH? Talk about raising the bar...

Holy smokes, that thing was seriously moving. Got traction?
I sure hope he makes it to Goliad next week.

Here is the thing about that mile... Stock Z06's are doing 180-185mph... At our mile they do 168-170. They clock them with Radar guns. I'd be VERY interested to see what it does with a proper timing setup like our mile has.
Just saying...
PS: The Ford GT makes 1600rwhp on turbo only plus they used a 100 shot on top of it. Keep in mind SW's OFFICIAL Texas Mile holding car makes less than 1350rwhp, as I've seen it do it in Mile trim with my own eyes.
I still doubt it'll do 250+ at our Mile event. Hopefully they come and prove everyone wrong.
