That's not why you clicked this article. You want to see Nevera blow up a drag strip, and it takes just three passes to set a new production-car world record. All three passes are done on Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires and actually, the first pass didn't even include a burnout. With cold tires, the Nevera ripped an 8.74 at 165.5 mph and Brooks' reaction to the pass was ... animated. The second pass added a burnout and it definitely helped with grip off the line as the car improved to 8.61 at 167 mph. Arguably more impressive was the 60-foot time of 1.45 seconds; an astounding number for street tires.
The record run was pass number three. A bit more diligence went into the burnout, making sure the tires were nice and warm. With the pedal stabbed, the Nevera achieved a 1.44 60-foot time and went through the traps in just 8.58 seconds with a speed of 167.5 mph. It's not only quicker than previous times from the Nevera, it's a world record for a production car.
