I know this is kind of a sad video...but just remember that the Ford GT had 800hp to the rear wheels, and the SLR was stock... (neither were cars we had touched)

The GT did have 800 to the wheels, our friend did the work to it, but the sound you hear is just literally spine-tinglingly badass

here's another video from that night... Before the GT met the SLR, he had some fun with a blown Z06, the guy in the Z said he had more than a Magnusen Blower and Corsa pipes, but after he got his a$$ handed to him, he came out and said he didnt have anything else done...

...all that your hearing in the vid is the GT...that car made the Z sound like it wasn't even on

That stock SLR was only pulled by ~ 3 cars up to 140 mph....it did pretty damn well against a lighter car putting out significantly more power IMO. Cool vid.
