Ford GT record

1700bhp Ford GT sets world record - BBC Top Gear

supercharger was replaced with a twin turbo. that is how you make a quick car even quicker.

Oy - a new, new SM record.

Another Ford GT, too...must be something to that, eh? :)

yeah, hard to find many cars pushing > 1000whp with a supercharger.

i'm sure they exist--probably more of them twin-charged than pure supercharger. the thing is, they seem to be so few and far between that i could probably count the numer that exist (worldwide) on 2 hands. 1000hp turbocharged cars are plentiful though. seems like 1 out of every 10 supras is that way.

the highest HP cars run Roots style Superchargers


but thats crazy that he beat the 2000hp Hennessy that ran 257mph at the TX2012

ok, i guess i should have specified that i wasn't counting cars that run nitromethane and/or cars that didn't come off a factory production assembly line. :p

idk if there are turbos that would handle a top fuel car mainly because of the exhaust gas being so crazy

I can't find anything that says how quick he did it. (time)
