Oh... I thought the answer was going to be one of the local ricers with an '89 Honda CRX.

I'm pretty sure it's not meant for 1/4 mile. It's going for land speed record in a semi..... The smoke show video on the sight is really good. Any thing with 4 turbos can't be all that bad......

But why use blowers for a landspeed record attempt. I would think that larger or even more Turbos would be the ticket. Since blowers have that parasitic effect they aren't getting their biggest MPH for the power they are making. Turbos and NAAAWWWWZZZZZ would make more sense to me.....eliminate the blowers.

I believe "SHOCKWAVE" owns the record for semi land speed at 376mph...

...it's got 3 Jet Engines!

I know it's kind of hillbilly, but look at anything in an unlimited class tractor pulling contest, and the horsepower and torque are probably greater. Still cool though, imagine what that thing sounds like screaming across the salt flats.
