The issue was getting the power to the ground. They were only able to run about 2200 whp on those runs because it was overcast

*cough (dyno queen) cough*



Good friend of mine has a monster Chevelle running twin 78s and is fully built inside and out.

Car makes 2700hp with only 25psi of boost, and has more to go of desired..... the issue is usable horsepower is often lost with traction unless your roll racing and have the power tuned correctly and it's smooth and not like a bottle rocket.

Those latches are Aerocatch and I run some on one of my trucks with a fiberglass hood.....

They are some strong pieces, but pointless if not latched lile in the vid.

I'm gonna say it and it many will argue it.....

It's stupid as hell to run that car on that track with what looks to be questionable conditions.

Might as well sign your own death certificate, but don't do shit like this because it encourages people to copy.

As far as power goes, stupid to turn it up when they clearly have too much motor for the suspension and steering.
