Default 1/4 run with the SRT twin turbo GS400

Has anyone gone to SRT website lately?

There is a video of 1/4 run of the black twin turbo GS400.

I can't believe how fast this thing takes off from a stop.

There are some other videos there as well check it out

www.swiftracing.com

Than click on the link for pictures & videos

In videos, the run I am talking about is the following:
Video of a Solo 1/4mi. run (3.4 MB) done at the Maple Grove Raceway, PA.

hey Drew

The video on SRT's website is of Mo's supercharged GS400. Its from a long time ago. His car had a fully built engine plus the supercharger which together put down between 600-700 crank hp. The quarter mile time posted of 12.0 was a little slower than it should have been because he had some problems with the tranny not shifting...you can actually hear it in the video. Nevertheless, its a great video

I road in Mo's GS a couple of weeks before that video was shot when I was up in MD getting some work done on my car. Even at a lower boost than he ran at the track, that thing was absolutely amazing. Never had anything push me back in the seat as hard. Felt like an astronaut blasting off the launch pad with my face pushing back to the sides.

His setup at the time was really a custom one-off (not one of the SC kits they used to sell)... Seem to recall it was an ATI Procharger with a lot of custom work, etc. He had a crazy fabricated shift kit in the car that looked like the arm of the terminator.

SC'ed = Supercharged

WOT/Wide Open Throttle = Pedal to the metal (gas pedal fully depressed)

Default Beast!

I got a ride in that car from Mo as well when I had some work done to my car. The thing was a beast. The supercharger was like an airplane turbine. Mo was getting some gas and accidentally almost nailed some guy's car at the pump who was not paying attention either and this guy was fuming. We pulled out from the station to the red light at the same time as this fool and it was on.
Of course it wasn't a race or anything. This guy was still yelling at us and Mo was just laughing at him becuase he knew no matter what this guy could never catch us in the junker he was in. The light turns green and Mo just says hold on.....he opened the GS up and laid down a huge patch of rubber with so much smoke I dont think the guy could have seen us at this point. I always kick myself becuase I had the camcoder with me but I was not recording. Needless to say, this car was awsome!
