Cool video. I've seen that car on at least one of the Vette forums.

I had to time it (stopwatch) for fun. The video starts at ~20-25mph.

25-60 in 2.76 seconds
25-100 in 6.30 seconds
25-165+ in 16.81 seconds

I'll run him in my car. ;) It'd be a good race. He might pull me above 120, I don't know. He's probably got more top-end power, but I know mine will do 25-100 in 6 seconds. I've never had mine to 160+ before. I honestly don't see how he gets that kind of traction in 1st gear, but I'll assume he heated the crap out of those Nitto tires.

Thanks for posting it. That was fun to watch.
