This car ran the Silver State Classic just the other weekend. It topped 200 mph in the standing mile, so yea, it was putting down some power! And keep in mind that this event takes place at a considerable atlitude, so the power doesn't come as easily.

"Guys, just a quick note. The Viper project we have been working on for the last year is up and running. Shane Tecklenburg has been on the DynaPack with the car all day and we are looking good to go. Results so far are 950 WHP and 806 TQ at 4 psi of boost."
That is why they use ridiculous turbos.

I read the 950 WHP but with the size of the engine the the turbos at 4 PSI I was more thinking of 2000 WHP. As comparison the Hennessey Vipers get more than 1000 WHP.
