the turbos are GT-368's (custom twins)
Yes the car does have alot more in it, Spark blow-out was not alowing me to run any higher boost that day, I am still working on the problm. I too think traps in the 140mph range at 0ft are going to be there with 30psi or so...

I agree Matt, but that video won't be complete unless there's a single turbo supra (bryce Dana's) in the backround getting spanked by BOTH cars as their racing each other, hehe

Don't be too sure that Bryce would get spanked by both of the cars easily. I remember (from the ZR1 Forum) that SW raced one of his friends TTZR1's with his Single Turbo Supra. He said the cars were evenly matched and SW makes about the same power as Bryce. Who knows, Bryce might get beat, but certainly not spanked. I don't mean this to be a flame, just shedding some light on the post.

ROBERT,JOHN HENNESSY WANTED TO RUN ON HIS SCHEDULE.I TOLD JOHNNY BOY TO RUN STEVE UELIGGER'S VIPER FIRST. STEVE RUNS HIGH 9 S ON SPRAY.THEN I WOULD BE HAPPY TO RUN THE WINNER.I ALSO SUGGESTED TO JOHN TO SET UP A RUN OFF WITH THE CAR MAGAZINE MOTOR TREND.NOW IM STILL WAITING ON JOHN. SO WHO'S WAITING ON WHO? THERE IS NO DOUBT IN MY MIND THAT THE LINGENFELTER ZR1 TWIN TURBO WILL BEAT THE VENOM 800 OR 900 OR 1000 IN THE QTR.MILE. .WHATEVER THE VENOM NUMBER IS DEPENDING ON WHAT DAY IT IS. THE LINGENFELTER 427 TWIN TURBO WITH APX 700 R.W.H.P. RUNS 9.5'S IN THE QTR. ALL DAY LONG.IF THE ZR1 TWIN TURBO DOESN'T SMOKE THE TWIN TURBO VIPER ILL BE THE FIRST TO CONGRADULATE JOHN.

this will be the most down-loaded vid on the web!
When it comes to Zr-1's the peak power does not tell you the whole story. Those cars will make the power up to 7200-7400 rpms.
That means you can run deeper gears and/or hold and pull harder/longer on each gear... makes a big Difference...

NORM - THANKS FOR SPELLING MY NAME RIGHT!
John - I have only seen the smiley face I wanted to use for you on the www.suicide-kings.com forum ! Seriously though, get P. Daddy to coordinate lunch Friday.

The Houston Club took to the streets last night! (Golder, **** Daddy P, Steve, John, Myself, Shakedown, Jason, Frogger) We had a little bit of everything.
The entertainment value was off the hook!
All I can say is, 'Bring on Snake Eyes!'
Peter got great video but I couldn't because I couldn't keep up w/ Ueligger or John (waaay to fast for me)
I myself don't think anyone can beat that Twin Turbo. Not from a roll like they're racing anyway. I have a blast everytime all the Viper guys go out! Cool to live in a City where there are a handfull.
February 2nd's coming up too!

I'd have to agree with you Matt, there are very few "street" cars on earth that would be able to beat that TT Viper on the highway....I would say highly tuned TT-covettes would be the only type of contender. ("MADMKIV" NO supra would have enough grunt to make the grade, too small of displacement=not enough area under the curve or boost responce; that video clip was old news son; john was only at 7~to~8 psi)....not to mention, even at 12psi, john car still has A LOT MORE left to go with a low compression built motor! Svsi systems already has built V-10s that can easily take 22PSI...imagine John cars at that level, it would be simply laughable mentioning ANY "supras" or even 820+RWHP ZR1's at THAT point.
However, let's bring out Meaney's C4 corvette in it's 1700 HP set-up (it's bigger trim turbines) Here's a link to it-" http://www.popularhotrodding.com/archive/features/0102_phr_features01.jsp "...now that would be a killer race!!
<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>Well LT5 there is one Supra that I think would give him a good run....Its the Powerhouse Racing 1300hp Supra....It did an 8.9 at I think 159-160mph...They say its a full street car but I dont believe any car that runs methanol is a street car....You cant go to your local gas station and fill up....But it would probably beat Hennesseys car......The Supra have better aerodynamics Ive heard so they trap at higher mph in the quarter...Just imagine a highway run..The aerodynamics would factor in even more.....I think Powerhouse is in Texas too......I would love to see that race.....

John, congratulations! 931 RWHP is just PLAIN sick, and on a stock bottom end!
I'm sure the car has a lot more potential than the 10.2 @ 143 MPH shows! Keep us posted on how the car does on the 1/4 mile with 12 PSI in every gear.

Hahaha, did someone say something about a supra ?!?!? I want you (John) to find the S.W. character or any other T88, T72, etc single turbo supra which the "internet supra geeks" hail as their god, and SPANK it like a celica real quick on the way back home from your DEEP in-to-the nines run at the strip. Once again, way to go John.
Kevin D., who are you? I have had several LPE 415 ZR1s, including the fastest one ever built. The TT ZR1s are fast, but the fastest one so far has run a 10.8@143 with a 70shot. You really don't have a clue. Bring your chevy down here and lets run. Quit hanging on everyone else's sac...

"cough" if you were ever to run each other "cough"
...Gotta love those Supra's......I have a few friends with them..One being a 10sec auto....Some people just underestimate a car with less displacement. ..But thats what the turbo's are for
Is your Viper stock??Somehow I doubt it..Later
