ford gt is more aerodynamic and i dont think theres a limit to the power they can make with that kind of money

I would assume leaded race fuel and meth, or could be on E85....not sure.......the record run was also made with a 300hp WON 2 stage Nitrous kit on top of what it made on the Dyno.

Don't get me wrong it is very impressive but they can't claim it's a street car if they are on race gas. E85 is ok but that is still kind of cheating if you stick with the traditional street car guidelines.
We are going to Maxton in April with our team effort thunderbird. Maybe this car will be there? I would like to have a look.

Maybe not a "street" car record but it is the standing mile record. Very impressive none the less.

that is a basically stock ford gt with twin turbo kit and built motor. You cant make 1400whp on pump gas. LOL he was still spinning at 150mph

The video of the run is a bit of a disappointment. Doesn't sound particularly cool. Video quality isn't great. Driving isn't great.

Fast as hell though, still pulling at the line.

I'd love to see the guys at Nelson Racing Engines take a stab at this....

Hold on, 34 psi on a built 5.4 and they only net 1370 hp? For a decent sized v8, that's pretty low hp for that boost.

Still, hat's off, that's fast.
