i find it kind of odd that no one has commented on these flaws of this vr4:
perfect interior w/leather seats
no gauges, signs of any aftermarket, performance-related additions, big brakes, roll-cage, or anything else aftermarket to aid in a sub-12 run
i don't know much about n20, but i'm quite sure that using a 200shot would cause some serious damage long before the end of a 1/4 run.
10.5 @ 150 is a 2wd speed (for the most part)
i also find it impossible to believe that you make enough money driving a truck that you're willing to risk a $25k investment by making a pass without tuning for the 200shot of n2o that you plan to use (why else would it be there?)
i'm sure i could find more to list, but i won't bother because i think i've made enough observations for a first post and just finding this page around 7pm. it appears that we've come to the conclusion, as a community, that your claims are bunk.personally, i think this board is pretty nice to new people that are honest and up-front with information, instead of lying in an attempt to make us think you're better than we are.
you're welcome to stay (because jim is such a nice guy about this kind of thing) and try to become a productive member of this board. however, if you insist on upholding your lies without a timeslip and/or video to prove this outrageous claim, i believe it would be best if you return to your model cars.
have a nice day
but if u think about it he hasnt had any time to show a time slip/video he went out of town for xmas -
u have to have a so-many point roll cage if u go into the 11 and he didnt have one

a 3/s can do 150 in fifth gear with room to roam (with a 5spd tranny) so perhaps his 10 second motor is capable of 180. 180mph with no roll cage, harness, and "shitty" tires sounds like a suicide mission. Anyways, I just cant seem to wrap my mind around the fact that you broke the world record but want no credit for doing so. The serious shops in japan that have been trying would love to see some truck driver from the midwest beat them im sure. I would also think that matt monet and altered atmosphere would be working round the clock to beat your new numbers. Your "top secret" motor that you are afraid to share with us is probably not so "top secret" because everything there is to do to the motor has been done..many times...over and over and over again. The equipment of choice for the top driver/builder/fabricator of these cars is partial to dr1000's. They are called dr1000's for a reason. If you only needed four or six hundred hp to go tens then they would be called dr500's...except they already exist...and are only good for 11 second passes.

this is a 6 spd. and it was governed at 155 in 6th.... as are most 6spd cars being governed at less of a speed in 6th then 5th....camaros Trans ams are governed like that also and so are the Nsx-t's as far as I know...not at those speeds that was just an EXSAMPLE........these are not shitty tires on this car the Kumho's are on my 1990 Grand Prix STE "turbo" and they are shitty tires in the wet of any sort......and CHEAP...

or save us all the time of calling u a lier and just say that ur car isnt a 11 sec car.

Well I dunno... my car in stock form only being 170hp pushes itself to 145mph top end in 6th gear with tons more room to go. Granted it takes a long time to get there... it gets there. My car in un-governed and if the little 2litre had some boost im sure it could easily see 160+.
Now no 420hp 3/S is capable of 180mph and thats a fact. Hell an svt focus with a vortec superhcarger kit running 12psi... numerous other engine mods and nearly 300fwhp struggles its way to 170mph and with a 17% drivetrain loss thats roughly 351hp at the crank... quite a bit of power for a light FWD car.
Id like to see a 420hp crank 3kgt push its nearly 4000lb ass to 180mph...
