Pretty close. The coolest part about it is if you get the chance to talk to them, they are really cool guys.

You must not be looking at the second video. The one in the first post was placed there by mistake. Here it is again:

American Cars Are Slow

What rear is he using, because if it is tubbed, its no street car. Its not too impressive BUT, it is pump gas. Everyone likes to argue over LS1 vs 13BT, I mean its 4 times the engine! Build a 4 rotor and slap twin turbos on it and call that pretty equal.

There was videos posted of a Protege with a 4 rotar TT drag car. That was slower...ran 8.76 and on methanol.

Do you know how expensive building a turbo 4 rotor would be?

Correct. There were still some issues with the car. This year should be better.

Hinson's car is insanely fast (1200 rwhp on pump??), but those headlights look horrible. Yucko.

After watching that first vid (the car running high 11s) I must say I really don't like the exhaust note at all. In general I like v8 exhaust notes, Ihor's s/c'ed mustang sounds really good. For some reason when the ls1 fd was going down the track, it sounded like poo to me. Weird.

That car is barely functional at this point and at the end of the video it said he backed off at 3/4.
