That would be a dissapointment. Lot of money/time down the drain. Which is why I leave my car in the garage 24/7.

I agree, Zero plans to ever go that fast.
Shooting for a 100mph trap speed next year. Should get me mid 14 et's.

"Here's what happened: The head gasket popped as well as both radiator hoses around the 1000ft mark. When that happened the heat and moisture fogged up the windshield (45 degrees out) and Paul was blinded as well as the car started drifting from the rear tires getting wet. Paul tried to pull the chute to straighten out the car but it was too late."

sucks, but glad he was ok

be careful out there, if he would've been highway racing, he'd probably be dead.

surprised i haven't seen more videos of something going wrong at 150mph+ street racing

guess I'm not seeing a total loss there. If it's a race car, cut out the bad, bend it back, weld up new shit. Not great pics though, but I've seen cars rolled onto the roof and raced a month later.
