Funny you should ask...I have one that's lying around in my garage. I believe it was Emerson Fittipaldi's when he won the Indy 500.
Just send me $7500US (bargain!) to the address in my profile. Cashier checks only. No refunds.

Maybe if you use a turbo out of a mack truck and one of those slingshot things from an aircraft carrier?

or better yet, measure 1,320 feet somewhere in the middle of a long straight local road, then start very far away and set your cruise control at 90 mph, then measure from stripe to stripe on your 1,320 mark and viola - 10 seconds exactly.
