Street legal? What's with the hauler? Over here, we do a thing called drag week. The feller that held that record here, towed the trailer with his race car, from track to track.
I'm from where you have one guy with a pro mod made from a Buick Roadmaster... Builds his own engines. He swaps his tires out changes his fuel source and goes into "track mode" runs low fives changes it back and drives it home. Does that not count?
Tom Bailey sick second and the sorcerers go back and forth for the fastest street legal cars in the world. This is nowhere close. Still a beautiful car though
I think Red Victor could certainly be up there with Tom Bailey but like everything it comes down to money so I think we need to help in some way and I’d certainly help 😊
Tom is well into the 5's and actually pulls a trailer 1000 miles too. He is making nearly 5000 horsepower on Steve Morris' Dyno. Steve runs 6's in a full body street legal station wagon too...just sayin. You can't compare Tom to anyone else because Tom is the man The Dodge Demon C170 runs 8's from the factory.

true... but Micke's "Camaro" is a straight up Pro Modified... Can't be driven on the street with out a LOT of work edit:...which I think was the main part this guy's "goal"
Does this car make all 3000 hp if you drove it on the street? And does it run on Ethanol, race gas, or Top Fuel/Nitro methane. (Does a full speed pass require rebuilding engine parts after?)

If you aren't breaking stuff then you just aren't trying, the 2 step on launch has made a massive difference in Drag Racing and my hat's off to the bloke behind the wheel for doing this with commentary and movement from the drinkers seat.
It wasn't street legal when doing the runs either.. had slick drag tyres on it. The are most probably swapped when the thing goes out on the road once a year to get an M.O.T. Not sure how well it would fare on noise either, but there are no strict rules on that and probably ok driving on road in a light throttle or low boost set up.
It is already left hand drive, sound like it needs to go to 'drag week' and see if being 'street legal' (remember the first test in tech is INSURANCE on it), it could do five races in 7 days and what 2200 miles on public roads.......
@@sylvaind.6786 As usual, wrong..... USN vet lived in Spain for three years as a child. visited 22 countries and over 30 ports, so not exactly untraveled.

It looks so American that car.
Needs another update and to get back over the the US again and show Tom Bailey, etc that the Brits can still beat the Yanks at drag & drive!
there's a few 5000 bhp road cars in america. mid 5 seconds is the world record right now
I'm guessing that Americans will grow old waiting for y'all to do something better than us? Y'all do lose quite well...at least you have that.
