Well its only use is drag racing really. You wouldn't want to try to drive on a regular road with those tires or even do something like, make a turn from a stop. I doubt it even has an open differential.
Even so, it looked way too squirrelly. They said they dyno'd it to have 800 WHP.

lol, I left with no more information than when I came in there. He was on a phone call with one of the prime contractors bidding on this design-build project and we got out of it with nothing new... so looks like it will be a scramble for a price with them a few days before the bid is due.
Just go GMP...

Generally Madeup Pricing.

Mornin Jeeples. Started my day with a cup of coffee and ordering a front bumper. I gotta have my winch mounted to something before the Jeep Jamboree in Oct. That's how I justified it anyway.

BTW, @Sean L - my old boss told me they did a mass pour at that tunnel project upstate yesterday...242 CY of concrete placed. 23 hours straight.

They're cooling it with cast-in tubing connected to a chiller plant.

lol, same engine, half the weight! The difference between a street legal car and a dedicated dragster. I do agree, maybe a little bit longer wheelbase would help with stability.

Don't forget the aftermarket tuning...

Like I said, it's basically a supercharged Hemi with four wheels attached to it.
