This guy ran 6.65 @ 210 at the recent NHRA Winternationals at Pomona. It's a 4.6 turbo making about 1600 hp, weighs about 2500 lbs. He top qualified in comp (no mean feat). I'm not a fan of turbos but this is one of the best runs by a ford powered car ever and should not go unrecognised.

When you look at the 210MPH it puts in perspective how much quicker these things are over your BA.... at a tad over 100mph
On the drags on telly the other week the top fuellers were getting 0.7 60 footers....lol |

He actually qualified 0.9 seconds under his class index. The next guy was 0.75 seconds under. That may not seem like much, but in NHRA Comp eliminator thats a street. He only lost the race because he fluffed a start.
