Damn. 800+ rear wheel. 205 mph standing mile. 3,4xx weight in race trim.
Now I am back on my centrifugal blower kick. This thing is really good.
Listen to how it revs when he blips it.

Matt said this is his favorite C5 ever.
The quality of this build reminds me of those Nelson Racing Engine videos. You could road race this.

He hot-laps 200mph runs when he races it in the standing mile. That's something.

Yes. Your standard drag racing build is not typically robust enough to handle that kind of duty cycle. I'm talking about the guys who ice their intakes to get another few tenths.
On the other hand, this kind of build is not really possible on a small budget. It's just not.
