Imagine if he was able to actually get traction in any of the 1st 4 gears when he went WOT. Even still... he was approaching 6k RPM in 6th by the end of the run. With that built engine, it still has about 2000 RPM to go before hitting a "max"

Yeah, his shifting was funny. Amazing how well it did even with slow shifts and wheelspin in 4 gears

You would think a mile standing start type deal would be closer to a drag race scenario than a Bonneville type scenario but watching that car makes it look way more Bonneville like than drag race like.

Fail on the donut, just terrible pictures, no video.

 

[AutoRoc]

I don't see how he got past 200 with all that drama. Crazy.

Mine didn't have a video at first. :icon_bigg

On a side note, there is no question in my mind that this thing would go well into the 26x range with any kind of reasonable start through the first 4 gears. I always told mofo's that when someone finally made a run with a big power Ford GT, it was going to lay some hurt.

The previous fastest FGT had been 226 and that was with just over 1000 rwhp, so you knew it was gonna bring the pain with 500+ rwhp more. I read it went 200-250 in about 7 seconds. Fuck.

Looked more like 8k rpm to me and it sounded like he hit the rev limiter in 6th. Car is sick.

My cousin (Owner JL Turbo) was there with the Red Twin Turbo ZO6. I think they got that car in the 207mph range.
