Someone who puts that kind of money and time in something deserves alot of respect.

[Not Brian]

a thousand horsepower jump over 2k rpms? yeesh

[RC K9]

Amazing.

[BIGGU]

holy shit thats insane.

[TTQ B4U]

WOW! Talk about holding nothing back.....

[Draco-REX]

Amazing. The materials science and engineering in this is astounding. How about the block where the whole lower half is one giant main bearing cap?

 

But when I see stuff like this, I have to wonder; is this the automotive equivalent to a body-builder? Yeah, it runs and makes power on the dyno, but with a curve like that, just how useable is it? Is it even feasible to take around a track? Hell, is it even worthwhile to drag race with such a small power band?

 

I'm not trying to take anything away from the build itself. But it looks like it's only purpose is to be a dyno queen.

It says there going to spin the car to 12k, there makin 1500 by what, 7k?

[Crossle]

I like how there isn't a head gasket used, just wow on a lot of the engineering.

 

I have to add though, the power curve on the gyno graph is absolutely retarded and thw power is almost useless. Period. But more of a bragging thing IMO. Not to take anything away from the car, now put a smaler turbo on it and keep the redline way high and holy shit that would be a fun car.

[Patterson]

I'm thinkin it was this car. Watch the exhaust.

 

[criitter7]

on a drag car like that all you need is about 2-3k power band

[6 Speed S4]

second link doesn't work.

[CRed05]

Well done

I want to know how he got the clutch pack of a superbike to work on a car. Does anyone have any idea where i can get some info on that?

Same size funny cars use....research them

[ImUrOBGYN]

Beautiful.

[35RFTW]

ZOMG that is crazy

[criitter7]

funny cars use nothing like this clutch setup and there are way bigger

Top Fuel/Funny Car/Pro Mod clutches are similar, but way bigger.

 

Unless that guy has giant hands, a top fuel clutch is bigger in diamter than a basketball if I remember correctly.

 

Oh and it is some neat stuff and way to push the edge I guess.

[EJ8 KENOBI]

Wow the crank alone will only run you about $31,000..

Its detailed thats for sure. You have to have that unlimited bank account though.
