    A wheelie for almost and eight mile? Holy crap. Trans brake looked like it gave a little, or was he just loading up?

    How many shifts in that 4 seconds?

    Don't you think that should've been posted in the Clubhouse instead of the car audio department? Otherwise that was pretty freaking sweet!

    Good question, doesn't look like he shifted till after he hit the 1/8 when the car dropped back down to the ground. Could be an auto with a shift kit of some sort.....I think if it was clutch he woulda lost the wheelie....

    Dude, that had to be 1/8th mile 'cause 187 is about 120 MPH too slow for a 4.4 second run through the 1/4 mile.

    Oh, dun, the file name says 1/8th mile run!

    Still, quite impressive carrying the front end through the traps like that. Probably would have been a 4.3 if the front wheels were on the ground! But geez, he landed hard!

    Holy crap, that's insane!

    Not to try and take away from that, 'cause, like I said, that's insane, but I find this car to be just as impressive if not moreso:

    It's a 1963 Pontiac LeMans. It was built by Nelson Racing Engineering, and they make some incredible engines! This one has a twin turbo 522CID Chevy cranking out 1000hp in street trim on pump gas, and when the boost's cranked up it'll turn out 2000hp! It'll do 7's in the 1/4, does 0 - 150 in 5 seconds, and is perfectly street legal!!!! I'm sorry...but I can't fathom that...THAT's insane!!

    Link to page on it on NRE's website.
