GT6, at Bonneville .Search "MyRideIsMe.com" Currently the fastest sports car in the world at 305+mph. Competes in C/BFMS,
ran recent "Speed Week". Owner/driver is Keith Copeland It beat it's main competitor, an Enzo Ferrari, by approx. 100mph, AND this includes being "on fire", making it's return run ! This is with a 360"/fuel turbo sbc. Obiviously not the stock 83" wb. but stretched to legal max of 130". Another interesting feature...It is front wheel drive ! Faster-Safer, roverman.

Cool! Here you go:

High speed pass with fire. Seems getting traction on the salt is the biggest problem.

Here is the qualifying run:

Much better throttle control on this run with a faster time. Probably had a lot of adrenaline by the return trip. Check out the fumes after he shuts off the engine.
