Ekanoo Racing Team Lexus Hits 220mph! (Video)

By -

Twin turbo ‘rocket’ wows Qatar, where it dominates the track.

“That’s badass! That is a machine right there!”

This is the reaction from one Lexus enthusiast after seeing the Ekanoo Racing Twin Turbo Lexus in action for the first time. The enthusiastic car fan is one of the good people over at 1320 Video who got a special treat recently when they went to watch drag racing in Qatar. Understandably, they were super-excited to get a chance to witness the twin turbo-charged Lexus do its thing.

In the video, they show the Lexus during all stages of the races while also talking a bit to the racing team to get a few more details about the amazing vehicle. Equipped with a Proline Hemi engine, the Ekanoo Racing Lexus is an absolute beast, at over 4,000 horsepower and racing at speeds approaching 220 mph. The filmmakers describe the vehicle appropriately when they call it a “rocket.”
