XKR Super G... Going for Mach 1
I think folks are just perplexed by the 1300hp (your estimated crank horsepower I'm assuming) and the 12 second 1/4 mile time.

Hey they say Z/G's are the new supra's.......we just are keeping consistent
And don't let anyone tell ya that a 800+hp car on a street tire is "easy to drive in the 1/4"....these cars can be bears to get off the line......now I'll stand against any 12, 11, 10, and 9.5+ car on the highway!!!!!!!!

However, I completely understand how somebody who is unfamiliar with Mike or his G could have a WTF reaction to what's listed on his car domain page. Afterall, folks with 800+ horsepower (let alone 1300) typically don't run the 1/4 with anything less than an R compound tire.

Thats because after he hired Scott, fire #4 happened(Sharif told him to stay away from it and to just work in the shed). So in his frantic attempt to put it back together and hide the evidence, he has not been able to sleep(I hear he has alot of stock in Starbucks now
)
j/k
What time tomorrow? I might be able to come by and check it out, if time permits.

...........I will leave Houston either at 9,10 or 11am on Friday....I want to get to FP before 2pm. It usually takes me less than 2hours to get there. ( By airplane..) Just had to say that to ward off any smartazz comments
Hope to see you there.

) 12's and 13's with an 800whp G....being a good road racer does not mean you can drag race as I found out ....I just said F@ck it and backed the car to the staging area and drove it to 160+
Drag racing is not easy with powa
Yeah Eric...I ran it with the Yoka and the 20's...waste of timeI did................RAJ

Deez... Thanks for the heads... They want to know how could someone with that much power run 12s... I did... With my 800whp setup I ran a 12s... I rolled it out slow as ****... Then I ran it way back from the tree rolling start and hit 160mph...... I was trying to get it on one slip so I could post it on here... It would not print it on one slip
