    I think traction would be a slight issue ...

          Our iron 392 HEMI makes more than that. Better throttle response, too.

            The turbos look like eyes and it has a numberplate that would get a fine from the Citizens' Infringement Officer.

              What do you mean it would get a fine from them? Why?
              A car making 1700hp and your worried about the number plate lol




              Its the most powerful LS1 in Aus although it is a 6.8L. There is another that comes close though. It was built by Horse Power Factory in VIC and the owner died from heart failure a short time ago i believe.

              Im prity sure its just a dyno queen as the owner has a VX R8 with 1000+hp for racing.

              Haters guna hate.

                Yeah the dragster.


                Have a look at the HP curve. It's useless for anything but dyno sheets.

                  For me, this is more boring than drag racing... This car is nothing short of useless...

                    Impressive power figure for sure, can't argue with cubes + boost for that.

                    As the others said, useless.

                      More boring than drag racing? If you consider drag racing "boring", you simply do not understand it.

                        I love the dynamics of drag racing, ie, the engines, the engineering, the pure horsepower, and the amazing times laid down by the Top Fuelers, and the like, but it doesn't have the flair of say, rallying, which I think is the most skillful type of motorsport around.

                          Word.

                          I thought your dragster would have a had a bigger motor.

                          Power skids arn't useless!!! Neither is building a car to run massive numbers. I'm prity sure it wasn't built with any other intent other than to see what sort of power can be achieved. If its built to run massive numbers on dynos and it does that then it is useful.
                          Id like to see another street car with 2 wheel drive and 1700+hp be 'useful' lol.
                          Saw a 650hp twin turbo 20v 6n polo pure sex show car on euromedian recently, no one is having a cry saying thats useless. It even has TWO turbos on a 4cyl....just coz.

                            Nah dude. She's 392 CUI bored 20 over. Don't worry, that LS would last longer. Haha.

                            I'm saying that the curve is not useful even on the drag strip. No matter what car it is in. It's cool, it took skill and effort to build, but it's built for one purpose and one only.. You can't really filter those engine characteristics into anything else.

                              Yeah i get what you mean, i can see that its only a dyno queen, everything done to it is aimed at peak power only but I find it stupid that others give it negative comments because of that, like its easy or something. Or like driving a slaped pos hatchback that makes 40kw is more useful....shiz we still do that and give props to it.

                              Not looking to compare the dragster to the LS, i mean you don't have to wear a mask to drive the LS do u. The only other person i can think of that wears a mask to drive a car is Batman. Wearing a mask to drive = Best
