3000hp camaro

http://jalopnik.com/5113462/earths-r...too-much-boost

From the article: When Spiro Pappas plants his foot in this, the sickest Camaro ever, the car doesn't run a 6-second quarter mile, but rather pulls a Chuck Norris and may actually spin the Earth backwards.

Global warming isn't the big ticket issue anymore, people; not with monsters like this running around. This beefed up 540 cubic inch Rat motor-powered Camaro with a pair of 88mm turbochargers threatens our very way of life: It's slowing the spin of the planet with every drag launch. We've got to act! This calls for emergency legislation, a government-sponsored task force and a book deal, stat.

I think the better question is "how many gallons per mile does it get".

I heard somewhere that it gets about a 1/4 mile per mustang... they stopped measuring in gallons.
