Twin Turbo Corvette vs. Whipple Ford GT vs. Procharged Corvette

Mark in the Ford GT, ... he put alot of work in his GT. He just installed the lights, and quite frankly cops laugh when he gets pulled over. They think its pretty awesome... anyhow.. Great vid, and I have a new appreciation for Corvettes.

and he also in this one.. I dont know who owns the Twin Turbo GT, but it is a beast. Mark is the guy screaming Got Damnit!

That ford GT is bad ass

Do cops really just laugh at his lights? I would expect him to get into a lot of trouble for that.

Depends on the cop I guess... They are illegal nodoubt, but are hidden in the vents of the vehicle. After the race of doing 190mph they were pulled over hence the cop lights in the side mirror.... and guess wha.... No ticket! That is absurd....

I know the guy in the vette in the second video. Apparently that whippled GT got a bigger charger. Him and the vette ran again and the vette tore his supercharger belt. NOt so fun.

If I was a cop and I pulled over supercars doing 190mph, as long as there were no cars around so its at least safer, I would tell them, the only way out of the ticket is give me a ride

Both of those Corvettes just recently had some of their current mods done. And the white TT GT is Kumar's, iirc. Don't know where he's been. I think there's another one being built though. Same Corvette.

Dallas Racing is no joke, though. Some the fastest cars in the US reside here.

Mr. Big was joking that during the same day the races were shot, they were at Dallas Raceway with a few Houston guys and let's just say that the Houston guys weren't quite fast enough.

But yes, Houston has some fast fucking cars as well.

That white GT is so sick


The music in that first video makes me want to stab myself in the eye with an ice pick.

All the supra guys upgrade to the TT gallardo since it is potent. SW set the standard for that last 2k10 in Mexico...Kumars white GT is crazy. I think he is getting more done...We went out to Mexico and he flew past me doing at least 170-180 racing the blue GT. Crazy ass motherfuckers.

Is that the Lingenfelter or Callaway Majofo? Those were the only two I recall back in the day running turboes on those c4 chassis'

Dont get me wrong we have fast supras in texas but still lol people need faster cars after a car has reached its potential...You can cram the shit out of power but you cant put it to the ground...Then you also use up the cars aerodynamic efficiency. The supra to be honest compared to a gallardo is not the most aerodynamic thing in the world. SW is part owner of Boost Logic as I recall and he has a few of his own businesses. The man can drive and he is loaded like a mofo.

Again rick dont get me wrong I love supras and they are fast but as proven by the texas mile the supra can only do so much before aerodynamics kicks in...Thats when the sleeker GT's and gallardos will start raping its mouth. Just sayin.

You act like I've said somewhere that Supras were the fastest cars around. I didn't. I said Brian & Allan were still around as far as fast Supras are concerned.

I don't know for sure, but I don't think so. DP's usually been seen hitting the strip with completely stock bodywork, no wing or hood.

But, it's been a few months. Hood doesn't look his style, though.

True I think his setup is done now. He usually goes to Dallas Raceway too. Last setup got him in the high 8s I think hes aiming for lower now as I recall.
