I'd really like to know just what is under the hood of this car.

That's impressive!

I bet it's a 4.6 with a Gryphon.

Looks like the track had some good grip. But still, alot of HP can only make that happen.

Remember a certain way of setting up the Viper car in Gran Turismo 4 that made the front end come up off the ground...

In the GT4, the engine was mounted in the back seat to take the weight off of the front. I slowed this down and the driver is in the drivers seat, not in the rear and it did not appear that the engine was anywhere but under the hood. I noticed the black rubber before lift off and I'm wondering if maybe they resined the track for super grip. Regardless, it'll out run anything I have.

Looks like he took the shock absorbers out before the run to save some weight, lol.

That was not a wheel stand that was an almost blow over I bet that guy had to change his shorts after that pass. Had he kept his foot in it there would have been a different out come on that pass.
