and yes, if you look until the end of the vid, that built motor was running 11 seconds flat in the quarter mile before they blew it up . stock vq block, running on 93 octane fuel . but they only did this to make the way for bigger and better things

yeah, but they were running 11 second 1/4 miles without blowing it up

on the video they took the nitrous line, and removed the jet... so it was probably getting a 1000+ shot of nitrous

Make for extra sensationalizm...if you don't get attention today, you're led to believe you are just another nobody.
