It can't be very reliable can it? That is with all that power parts in the powertrain must break all the time. But when everything is working...man that thing must be a riot.

Well - the car would be good for a 1/4 mile demonstration and a top speed run as configured.

actually SVS uses that car for drag racing not as a street car I've seen it on a trailer with slicks before going up to one of our drag strips around here. and there are quite a few SVS cars around here.

They are going for the 300mph barrier....In there class at Bonneville, the record is 264mph....It seems they will smash that record easily....BTW if its built right it will be very reliable but of course it wont last as long as a stock or mildly modded car...People use to say 1000hp Vipers aint streetable or reliable...Now look how many real street car Vipers are over 1000-1200rwhp reliably....Some are daily drivers too :shock:
