Standing Mile record raped by TT Ford GT

[Mook]

good god

apparently there was an 18mph headwind at the end...so the car could easily crack 270.

We were at the Exotics Rally Miami One Mile event today at the Dade-Collier Airstrip. We’ll be updating this blog post as the videos and pictures come up, but first up is a video of the Hofman Motorsports & Heffner Performance Twin Turbo Ford GT which has the highest reported run of the day trapping 266.93 MPH through the standing one mile.

Ford wanted to name the GT after the "GT40", but some company owned the trademark and wanted big cash to license it hence the GT name.

In order to get those kinds of numbers the internals are replaced. But the heffner kit that get around 1200whp on 110 octane, they just slap on turbos, manifold (intake) and tune

 

[bluzohh6]

93 octane is around 850 whp

100 is around 950

110 gets to around 1200
