some SVT POWER @ the Texas Mile *VIDS*

[Jean Ralphio]

i know its not coming close to the big records, but its cool to see what these 2 are capable of anyway. camera guy sucks

YouTube- 205 mph @ The Texas Mile

my car: full stock interior even a spare tire, a/c, power steering, everything and no sheet metal wing or gutted interior. and no procharger just a simple twin screw.

and then their turbo Lightning gave it a go...thats a mighty big number for a flying brick. :drool:

Oh, and the Cobra is a total street car... built motor/trans with a 3.4 Whipple. 850 rwhp/760 rwtq

 

[Yaj Yak]

3.4 whipple.

Ive done 170ish but it wasnt from 0-170 in a mile

 

[blakbearddelite]

Yeah, those cars are moving. My car has only seen 114mph

 

[Angus]

114 is kinda scary in a vert i would think... And that is why i want a 6 pt roll bar.

 

[blakbearddelite]

Not that it makes that much of a difference, but that's at the track. On the streets, maybe about 95mph. You don't have to worry about other cars at the track, unless you're running dead even with someone.

I was thinking of the 6pt roll bar myself. I'll wait for you to do it first, and you can let me know how it goes.

 

[Angus]

you first.

but I did see a sweet gt500 rolling around st. chuck with one the other day :drool:

 

[blakbearddelite]

I went first with the forced induction, so it's your turn to go first with the roll bar.

 

[Angus]

so if I go roll bar, you're saying you'll give me your blower to use with it?

Sure for a small fee once I upgrade to a 2.8H

 

[Jean Ralphio]

cant stop watching the cobra clip.
he's got "j.mihovitz" cams ... and the car sounds AMAZING, IMO.

 

[Mook]

i dont really like how that cobra sounds...could be the camera but no thanks

meh-- it could sounds like an SRT4 and id still drive it.
Full-weight, true street car that does 200+

 

[Mook]

my comment was in regards to your "sounds amazing" comment. not debating the awesomeness.

 

[Jean Ralphio]

to each their own
it is reaaaalllly raspy

 

[Smokinhot]

i really wonder what my brother could have pulled in a mile with his old setup. On the dyno (first TCG dyno day) he was at 142 @ 5800rpm in 4th gear... he still had another 600rpm to pull and all of 5th and 6th in his truck, lol. He just needed alot more power but he could of got it there.

T56 swapped truck FTW

 

[Reid@SP]

DAMN that thing sounds good!! Sounded like it was definitely on street tires. It put down a damn respectable MPH for a car with a T56 trans. It's always a bit tricky making a car do a top speed run in an overdriven gear.

Off topic- I absolutely LOVE your car. I would love to someday pick one of those up to go with the Supra

150+ in a lot of cars is a bit nerve racking. Cars like Mustangs and Camaros aren't really designed from an aero standpoint for higher speeds. Corvettes, Porsches, and BMW's are another story.

I had the Jag 160 and was not scared

Your speedo might have said 160.

 

[Riski]

why would my speedo be off?

 

[Riski]

it actually says 155 and goes into the red....
