It's a neat build for sure but probably costs as much as most people pay for their first house!

Yes it does at about $80k depending on options.....But what I find interesting, is that it is very similar to the original, just tweaked here and there for the crazy performance they are expecting. The're 4.9 BS platform is a much bigger departure from the original G2 design than this version is. All I know is, I want one....

It will be interesting to see how it performs on the Drag and Drive events.
I only made it halfway through the video last night. Did he show the Duster it was going in?

That's nice and all, but I'd rather watch someone do drag week w/ something they built themselves that didn't cost a fortune.
GY3...no they didn't show the Duster.

The turbo cars are so much easier on parts it seems. Not to mention they seem to be pleasant to drive. I have been passed by many a turbo car going 70-80MPH just thumping quietly down the highway as I spin 3500RPM at 63MPH lol. Some of these cars are so tame the only thing that gives them away is parachutes and funny car cages. That's the only thing that can answer if it runs 10s or 7s lol.
I think the blowers get unpleasant to drive at some point. One particular car I can think of is an 83 Capri, its an awesome stick shift coyote powered car with a procharger or vortech on it. Even driving through the pits the bypass on the blower is flowing so much air that its all you hear. I can't imagine what its like on the road, even though I know he stuffs a filter or something on the bypass to quiet it down. Plenty of roots blown cars have finished but nothing that runs crazy fast ET that I can recall. People have shown up with screw blowers but I can't recall any finishing.

I'm sure it's awesome, I just find forums or readable info way more pallatable than hour long youtube videos. (I don't really watch anything long on youtube)

I like the part where he held up the main cap with a spun bearing and said its the worst one he has ever seen....I broke a Hemi main cap in half on one of my Hemis when I spun a bearing... I wonder if the main cap broke first, then the bearing spun?

I haven't had a chance to watch this one yet. I've wondered if he built a Hemi , with his SMX at 125k I think it was I can't imagine this is much cheaper?
running up my post count some more .

The turbo cars are so much easier on parts it seems. They are definitely the easiest on parts. Softer on the drivetrain, least load on the bottom end. 1000 hp turbo vs. 1000 hp n/a and the turbo engine will last much longer. Same thing compared to a blower combo. Turbos aren't free (you lose some VE with the backpressure of a turbo combination) but it's peanuts in comparison to the power required to drive a blower, and the cylinder pressure on a turbo is showing up at a more reasonable spot in the cycle. Something like a common 2.3L TVS or Whipple is 150 hp of power consumption at redline, so to make 700 with a combo like that, the engine is seeing 850 hp worth of load in the cylinders.

Not much different from the other megabuck pro mod stuff that's already done drag week before.

Duster will have one of these bodies, a 5 sec contender I assume... They're going to put that on the road? Looks similar to Tom Bailey's "Camaro".
