It shouldn't be a suprise that it's quarter mile isn't going to be "incredible". I'd like to see most kids on here try to take off in a 2000hp rear wheel drive car without spinnin the tires the entire strip. lol
so many people don't know there fact here. for a start this car does have 2000bhp and if you want proof just type in red victor one into the search bar and thats all the proof you need. this guy has spent most of his life working on this car so he deserves alot of credit.
A car old enough can be issued a specific HVLP (Historic Vehicle License Plate) in the majority of the states, making it street legal regardless of what's under the hood. Please educate yourself before misinforming others.
give up its street legal, who cares wher its legal at, it is driven on the public street, so ther for its street legal...if we had a car only street legal here the same rules would apply
This car is road legal in the UK, from what i know it's been built by a man in Northampton has 9300cc twin turbo V8. From what i understand this car would be road legal in the USA, any vehicle modification as long as it is not a danger is legal as long as it is declared through the appropriate channels. Any questions?
Do you know how much the vehicle weighs, or its gearing, tyres, etc. FOOL.
It's street legal, and IS driven regularly on the roads. Pretty damned impressive for a home-built ,steel-bodied 40-year old family car I'd say. Let's see some of you dickheads do the same.
thats sad....over 2000hp an it runs a 8.74....like come on a 1400hp supra can run faster then that....Ryan Woons supra runs under 8 seconds an its only 1400hp
Nope, it's a Vauxhall Victor. This one is widely known as Red Victor One, or Red Victor Two (depending on which point in it's life you look at). Both versions are stupid fast, road legal, and built in some British man's garage.
"Mageac" has a good point, being street legal isn't any use if you need high octane race gas and the engine can't run for more than a couple minutes at a time. The last winner of Hot Rod's street drags was an ugly-as-sin pink Chevy with a Lenco trans and two giant turbos, but it ran consistent high sevens and cruised on the highway track-to-track reliably on 2 year-old M/T tires. Now THAT's a genuinely streetable car. Just as long as you can work the Lenco.
you mean W18 quad turbo...twin Audi engines forged together to make it..and it sounds crap, cause it was designed for low noise output and a qoulity low sounding ride. I guess if you work the extractors, take of the many cats and put some sort of a/m less restricting exhuast on it it would scare the living shit out of most cars..
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
thats stupid anddumb... dude you have 2000 hp and you can only do 8 seconds? i hav a base model twin charged mitsubishi lancer es with 430 hp and it's doing 9 seconds. so how is it that you have 2000 and ur only getting one second faster than my car. u dont have 2000 hp
not it hasnt. Andy Frost (the Owner) set a new world record last season of 7.63 and later ran a slower ET but managed 194mph. those are its records. 6.9 is pro stock territory mate, do your research
Toyota Rav4 with 150hp petrol engine is really quick when you think on what the car is made for, and yes, I have driven one. Moms got a forrest green one xD
@romeoelcobra its power the weight ratio and also due to air, air becomes more harder to cut through at faster speeds making it take more time to get to its max speed and also causing its max speed by not being aero dynamic enough to put all its power to good use
lol, i went to sant pod last year and saw this in the pits,you would fucking shit yourself if you saw under his bonnet, best engine i have ever seen, daft cunt, wot u got a corsa
hey leave corsas alone. my 5 door 1.2 corsa comfort would piss all over this. who needs 9.3 litres when u've got a pop-up reverse gear and sunglasses holder over the driver door! not forgettin the epic 70 bhp and 105 mph top speed (down a hill with the wind behind me)! yeee
That's Larry Larson, you can find his other videos on youtube as well, and his record is a 1/4 in 6.95

182 mph. I seriously doubt the thing is 2,000 bhp. Unless it has the aerodynamics of a steel wall and weighs a load.
