Holy smokes!!! That looks like a new N/A trap record, and at a mediocre track to boot! I can't imagine what the car would do in cold weather at a fast track like MIR. Dodger, look out!

Congrats to Renntech...they are really cleaning up at the track these days.

I'm amazed the half shafts can stand up to that kind of HP/TQ esp with drag radials.

That's one quick ****!

From the video what was on top of the engine? Prototype top mount intercooler? Can't imagine what this kit will sell for? $30-40k?

CONGRATS to Renntech!! Those are awesome numbers!!

I know what it takes to run those numbers and thats impressive in the Florida summer!! I would like to see what the power numbers are and how much additional power all the new goodies brings to the table. Great job Renntech!!!

Hope to race with you soon sometime.

Sick numbers in + DA. Bring that car to MIR in the winter and it should do amazing.

Prototype heads
prototype cam
prototype intake manifold
Rebuilt Tranny
LTH
Race gas.


Pretty cryptic as far as the mods go. All in house? New companies? Looking forward to more info.


Congrats!

That's a fast N/A C! Wonder how far they went with the weight reduction. Does anyone know how much interior is left in their car?

It's pretty straight forward to remove 200lbs.

Braille 15lbs battery.
Remove back seats.
Remove everything in the trunk.
Remove passenger seat.

I run daily with all that our except the passenger seat.

Light weight rims and rotors can save you another 30-40lbs of rotational mass, which is huge too.

So this car with a lot of mods than you have, got around the same time you've got.

You've only got Tune/Headers/Exhaust.

Mmm !

He runs -1700 DA and I've heard 500lbs less.

500lbs is worth 0.5 alone.

Both cars at the same track would provide different results.

Maybe he has a blower painted magnesium silver and is hiding it from the world lmao.

Their only cryptic mod is the new intake manifold. They've actually been working on it and perfecting it for 2 years now and I think I posted about it last year. The other stuff is old news: ported heads, cams, race tune, race exhaust, etc...
