RR-Racing Supercharged ISF reeling in GT3 down the Pocono Raceway straight - YouTube

We have some more video footage from later in the day yesterday.... at 6pm they opened up the entire oval, so we were able to get about 8 full laps in at top speed, hit nearly 170mph on the straights!

At one point I had a few Z06 race cars behind me. They were much faster in the turns because they were running slicks (and also I was afraid of hitting the wall at 140mph+ So I am exiting the turn and give them the point-by all while mashing my foot on the gas... and the ISF just pulled away on the straight. Still running only 3.2psi peak boost

Anyway, so this was the first track test of our new SC. Track testing is critical to test the reliability of the SC drive system, and it was flawless all day.

We will post more details soon, and of course dyno results as we continue fine tuning the car.

We are getting a lot of questions about pricing. The kit will not be cheap. Rotrex c38 based supercharger kits for the e92 M3 run anywhere from $8000-$14000. Our kit will be around $8k, and we will try to keep it below that if possible.

Great event Rafi loved chasing down GT3's in my F. Too bad I chewed up my tire and missed the last two sessions.

It was great seeing you all there, having some friends from previous events with HOD, I've gotten lots of questions of "What is up with all these Lexus's here?", people and enthusiasts are not used to seeing so many F's, I think there was more of us then Mustangs, Vettes and BMW's, what a turn out.

The RR's Supercharged F was sick, the SC is definitely work in progress and it's a R&D piece, but still, seeing one finally after so many years and working is a testament to those few companies that are committed in further improving our platform and coming out with aftermarket parts for us.

Can't wait to do this again with the F family and Mike, Chris, you should move up to Group-B next time, much more fun there and I wouldn't have to be by myself there.

Yikes.. I suppose it was foolish to think this would have been a stealth build.

Does it sound like a jet turbine?
