Default TranStar racing .... they can't be serious.

From TranStar racing website http://www.gtr-xs.com/specifications.htm

Up to 2000 hps and 2000ft-lbs on racing fuel / 1300 hps and 1335 ft-lbs
So far ok, but still the torque... even with their 3 disk clutch it's going to be especially with 1st speed rated at 50 mph.

1.5 sec 0 to 60 mph...
6.6 sec 1/4 mile...
Top speed 314 mph...
0-100-0 less than 10 sec (only, not less than 5 sec?)
These numbers above are estimates"based on accepted engineering formulas and 2000 hp/3000 lb input assumptions" (from their website) even if from spec the max torque is 2000ft-lbs.

BTW it is a convertible

I call this car "the car that will never be". We'll see in 2011.
