testing 600+ hp cars at a drag strip on street tires is retarded.

Sax1031 · 07-07-2010, 11:42 PM

And why did they use the 635hp Super Snake?

Or they were testing the cars in they're streetable form straight from the performance shops to see who's faster. Isn't that retarded. Now if we put drag radicals on all of them, expect some different 1/4 mile numbers, but expect the Challenger to still finish last lol! I hope you didn't make that tires comment because you knew the SuperSnake wouldn't get good traction on factory tires.

Your not a little sore because the Super-Snake got spanked are you? You drive a Mustang? Perhaps......

Hennessey FTW.

If you are going to run high hp cars to see what they would do on a drag strip at least put a tire on them.

OR...maybe they didn't want to see what they'd run on drag tires, maybe they just wanted to see what they'd run on tires-straight from the factory or performance shops. Tires you'll be driving around with during daily driving......

I didn't know the owners of these cars were forced to only run the tires that come on the car. Thanks for clearing that up.

Those are some pretty horrible ET's for all three cars.

first off, very old video, its been posted before.

and yes the camaro finished first. doesnt it dyno more rwhp than the supersnake?

the supersnake also comes with a factory warranty, you cant take your hennessey camaro to a chevy dealership to get it worked on.

Sax1031 · 07-08-2010, 11:04 AM

The Super Snake made more rwhp.

Sax1031 · 07-08-2010, 11:10 AM

This is what I want to see Evan Smith get his hands on. For 2011 you can have your Super Snake with the kenne bell 3.6 blower. 800hp.

Evan also ran a 10.870 @ 134 in a 2008 Super Snake. He did have et streets on an otherwise stock Super Snake.

an "otherwise stock super snake" is $30,000 worth of upgrades on top of a gt500.
