True work of art and a docile BEAST!! Last time I heard the owners wife was making him sell it due to it being too wild...asking price 80K, sweet deal seeing as the motor alone was over 50K.
Keep it up Nelson, you make it happen...BIG TIME ;)
First of all when they talk about streetable they mean if its legal to cruis in the street fuck the lambo those plastic things can't hang with these muscle cars
I lke how he keep hitting on the fact how "street car" it is when it sounds like a dragster, full race everything, no interior, and probably rides like a 1000+hp tin can. look at the inside of it, switches and sheet metal everywhere. driving a car on the street once in a while doesn't classify it as a street car.
The 1550hp FULL STREET Lambos on TX2k11 are real street cars that lay numbers. air conditioning and all haha. I'm not a hater, but i wouldnt take that Tempest freeway racing.
@TerribleTSi These cars built by Nelson Racing will own any Highway Racing/top end Lambo and are streetable. Do some research before you write an ignorant comment. Any domestic big block will make more HP than any TT Lamborghini. Find me a Lambo making 2000-3000hp. Yeah get off the Texas Mile nut sack.
I was wondering since you build engines & things like that have you ever made a cam or cams that allow 2 cylinders to fire at once. For example on a V8 when a piston is at TDC on one side, the opposite side has a piston TDC also. Perhaps you could invent an engine that fires 2 pistons each time it fires so that it could have twice the horse power or torque.
hey! any progress on the gto? by the way the pictures of the black corvette stingray arent posted your site when you click it show pictures of a kit car
@barath4545 Show me a supra beating a Nelson made car and then we will talk. Also check out the Nelson racing website Tom Nelson is second to NONE he is the very best. Also check out all the awards he has won.
@pyro74boy I know but he makes the engines. I love those engines as much as you do and I'm not a Supra fan either. I was pointing out that not all racing is done in a straight line. Any Jap/Euro car used for drag racing is a bad test, as we in general build our cars for road courses with corners, not drag racing. I think it basically stems from racing history, you guys had Indy, dragracing and Nascar, we had Formula 1 and Rally. Diffrent goals to focus on.
@barath4545 Yes I know that not all racing is done in a straight line. NEVER said that all racing was. Also you need to check out the Nelson racng website and you wll see that NRE cars are good for more then just Drag racing hell the point is that you can drive a car like this down the track and run 7,s in the 1/4 mile and drive this same car home on the street anytime you want to. Look at all of Mr Nelsons videos before you say any of these tests are bad because Mr Nelson is second to NONE.
I thought big cams had to have lots of compression to hit like that and forced induction engines need to be low compression,why does his cam hit so hard?
I would love to just take this thing on the free way, pull up to a random stranger, slowly role down the window, then salute them and then stomp the pedal to the floor and dissapear into the horizon.
I know at the end Butch said him and his wife were happy about it.... But Butch do you let her drive it.?????????? Love the car......Congra!!!!!!!!!!!!
To let everyone know? I think everyone needs to let you know your full of shit ! Chevy's SB2 (Nascar motor) without restrictor plate only put out a little over 700 on the "Engine Dyno" so it doesnt even account for hp loss through the drivetrain which on a stock car comes out to about a 10% to 5% loss.
why supra fan boys love 2js is because of the power compared to the cubic inchage they got to work with pretty sure 2j's only work out to about 183 cubic inch and this is a 515 so yea 2j's absolutly kick ass for their size you have to admit
@thevettedude66 True. This is a Tom Nelson built motor and Supra owners don't even try to talk smack about this car because this car eats up 1500hp + supras.
@jakedogg29 I was wondering the same thing...have u noticed they NEVER state with the MPG is? LMAO!!!! in that car, probably 5 MPG..LOL..it would take 2 fill-ups to get to work and back....
@jakedogg29 I'd hate to be the cop trying to catch this car for speeding! Christ, you would have to call the entire dept in for backup, and even then they would fail! What a dam sweet(fast)car!!

This exact engine with the exhaust and accesories makes 1244HP at the flywheel, as you can find per this car's engine on the dyno. On 91 octane.
Though they don't specify an octane, I think it's reasonable to assume that it makes 2k on alcohol, namely methanol.
