  • I love when people take their time to explain such things! I'm a car-fanatic myself and i like good dialogue and nerdy talk;-) Nice to see people commenting and sharing experience instead af being haters about everything;-)

    Thx dude!

  • its not the horsepower thats the problem dude, its the torque. yer it may be set at 1000 hp, but the toqrue will be around 1500-1600 nm. at 2000 hp this car makes close to 3000 nm of torque. if he floored this car at 3000 nm of torque in first gear, he no doubt wouldnt have any control with the tyres he is using.

  • What was done to the transmission to survive that kind of power long-term?

  • i new a guy with a nelson small block, i was shocked when i noticed they(nelsonracing) used head bolts in a boosted engine...eventually had to fix that part. good looking engine though.

  • 1 person doesnt know anything about cars =P

  • @97MKIV probably a highly built auto

  • moneyshot @ 1:53

  • Whats the sense in doing a test demo with a car like this in rush hour traffic how about an open country road,highway or possibly a race track

  • Okay, I have what may be a stupid question. But what type of transmission is on this amazing car? Is it Auto, Standard, or something along the GT-R transmissions? No hate here, just an inquiry.

  • @MAVSLBU it's when a vehicle has been modified, generally with engine modifications or a whole different engine completely, that seems stock from the outside, but awakens when you press the gas, hence the name sleeper.

  • honestly i do not know the term of "sleeper" what does that mean

  • ready set g...race already over
