01 1000 vs 800 hp Vette

http://www.illicitintentions.com/800HPvetteRace.WMV <--video




Brought to you by the fellas of www.IllicitIntentions.com .

A guy showed up at the local race scene saying he had 800HP in his Vette. He popped the hood and had a Vortec blower and Nitrous, he also said he had heads/cam and you could hear the cam. He said he would race anyone there for $2,000 and one of my friends took him up on the offer and went to get his Twin Turbo Cobra (which is faster than my 1k). When my buddy went to get the Cobra this guy in the Vette took off! So what did I do? I chased him down! Here is the video:

Oh goody...maybe now,

the E55 drivers will realize what happens when a big-bore pilot's not afraid to twist the throttle.As fast as all AMG cars are,there is no comparison to a good bike.

That's a very fast bike, but I don't think the vette was 800hp. Racingfreaks.net had a video of the 700 hp Lingenfelter Vette beating a Hayabusa.

That bike of yours is pretty damn fast..... and you say your friends TT Cobra is even FASTER!!!!!! Simply Insane! Has your friend ever run his car at the track or do you at least have enough knowledge of it to give a baseline of what it runs? Nice run(s) BTW! Be Safe!
