It makes me sad knowing many people don't know this car exists. Incredible Beast!
Me too...
@@JohnnyBohmerProvingGroundsSLFI have been sharing it like crazy to everyone I know.
@JohnnyBohmerProvingGroundsSLF I have also been dropping the speed run in the comments of other videos that feature the "Fastest Cars" while calling them out for skipping BADD GT
@@shauncatlett6066 Thank You so much!! JB
@@shauncatlett6066 My man!! Thanks :)
You couldn't have picked the most awesome perfect vehicle to do this!!!!!!! So frikin cool! I love it! CONGRATS on everything! 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
Thanks for this! It's a travesty that mainstream media doesn't tell the world about this incredible result of your efforts. Stay safe and keep FoMoCo in the record books!!
It's because this isn't that good... This is the classic case of American fixation on an achievement that, honestly, it isn't that impressive!
@@Michael_Michaels lolol. What's wrong? Your favorite manufacturer can't hang. Yup
@@Michael_Michaels fun fact. EVERY major acceleration and top speed world record are held by American V8s.
Cry harder
Thank You for seeing this, I am COMPLETELY IGNORED because myself and the BADD GT dont fit the mold. I am asked ALL the time why don't more people know about this record and the only answer is "the other guys" spend way more time peddling their vaporware than running their car.
I am considering letting the world "know what I know" from my years of setting up and many times driving for the "other guys", I haven't so far because it would DESTROY a lot of business models if people actually knew the real backstory of the hypercar companies that have tested @ JBPG for years...
@@JohnnyBohmerProvingGroundsSLF I spread the word every time anyone needs a lesson on facts. No other oe engines have achieved this level of performance. Period. Stay safe, Johhny!
Absolutely savage, amazing car and driver. Thanks for the breakdown and look forward to seeing your next run.
Thank You!! Getting the car prepped now and hopefully late 2024 I will go for 320 mph or better ;)
Respect man, that car is art, pure petrolhead dream car, V8 + manual. I just can imagine what this car would do if had opportunity to be driven at famous VW Ehra Lessien high speed track. Best wishes in next runs, but honestly this car is already in history books of fastest cars in the world. Regards from Serbia.
Thank You my friend!!!
Johnny Bohmer FK YEAH! 500km/h! Koenigsegg WHAT?😂❤
OH YEAH!!!
Koenigsegg can't touch this one
@@Smzxe They will have to try hard, but next time out the BADD GT will lay down the law...
@@Smzxe Stop comparing the 2. They have already said that the 1176hp Agera RS can hit over 300mph (Now imagine if it had 2100hp like this). The Jesko has 1600hp and has never been tested. They just don't because of the tires. Tires are the new limit to speed today. Also the Gemera which is coming has a 2300hp version.
@@carlospacheco8640 lmao, if thats the case why has the badd gt done it? and why does the ssc tuatara hold the current speed record? Oh right, because youre talking out of your ass
What a great video! Tons of good information and loved the extra/historical footage
This car is an amazing accomplishment
Thank You!!!!
Why this car isn't the most celebrated car in the world...IDK
FirstOnRaceDay🇺🇸💪
Total respect sir! It’s nice to see the car running fine after that crazy run! Hope to see it braking more records 🤘🏼 stay safe man! Cheers
The Ford GT is the greatest car of all time. I don’t really like the newest Ford GT, I like the look but not a fan of the V6.
SAME!!
What an AMAZING accomplishment! Congatulations to the team, bravest driver I have ever seen, and the AWESOME car..🔥🔥
Thank You from all of us @ JBR!!!
Wow! ..... Great run! ... Very good video.
Thank You and Thank You!!
This car is the reason I kept my 2009 gt500. It’s got built engine that looked like industrial art and she’ll spin 8000 rpm’s but this GT is insane! I’ve never seen a 5.4 capable of revving higher than mine.
What a run and what a car! I can't afford a Ford GT, but my 2010 GT500 gives me the same vibe!
I can’t believe it still has the 5.4 in it. Fkn crazy
Thanks, interesting to get answers to FAQs. Here's a (not so) common question - is it worth setting up a "spintron" for tire/wheel assemblies and pre-run them at simulated speeds to qualify them before a run? You could confirm balance and mechanical integrity if nothing else. You'd need a pressure drum or belt if you wanted to get more realistic, but even simple spin runs might be useful.
Great question, I have been involved in downforce tire testing in the past,using high speed a tire testing machine. I base my tire choice on the best results. I only run tires once or twice on the BADD GT above 260mph and testing them before the run would possibly weaken the belting so I don't pre-test the tires I am going to use. I am superstitious that way from past experience. Thanks, JB
@@JohnnyBohmerProvingGroundsSLF Sensible on not reusing tires, so I get your point about not stressing them more than needed. Good luck in 2025, hope you break 325+.
How many miles have you put on BADD GT?
I lost it when you said the record run wasn’t on full power….
Next time out will be @ full boost = 2700 plus hp, big number will fall ;)
@@JohnnyBohmerProvingGroundsSLF I have no words for you. God bless and can’t wait.
@@POLOLOUS3 Thanks!!!
A news station local to you just broadcast a story about a crash of a Hennessey Venom F5 at the proving grounds, but made no mention of you in the story. Were you not involved with that particular test session? If you were is there anything you can say about it yet?
I was not involved in that test,all I know is the car crashed due to lack of aero testing.
Just Badass!
Ford💪🏼
Congrats on the success with badd gt!!! Where do we go from here? Nxt milestone? Will there be a Guinness book record set 1 day??
Huge huge huge huge compliments for the project and for the courage you showed going 310 mph on street tyres that are approved only for 187 mph….
What i shyly would like to ask you is….are you not afraid to explode a tyre (that are not even close to be approved to 500km/h) and to have big accident/to die in the run? It’s a VERY BIG RISK…
I know if there isn’t someone like you many records in this world wouldn’t be broken…ok….but ehi…fear doesn’t exist for you???
Hello, thank you for the great comment!! Yes fear is always a factor but I have done this for so long that it isn't a major issue. There is always danger doing these top speed runs and I have a will and list of things to do on site the day of the run in the even the worst case scenario happens. JB
@@JohnnyBohmerProvingGroundsSLF
IF the previous answer was Written by yourself in person….as i think (i mean really you Johnny Bohmer….) WOW it’s REALLY an HONOUR for me reading the comment….now i can say to myself and to the others that i have spoken once in my life with a real life hero like….at least for me!!!
i am really a petrol head guy and i am addicted to cars and motorcycles even me…for example i am planning to do a crazy TTRS with 1000 hp with iroz motorsport (for track use and not only) and even a more crazier bike starting from a 2023 Panigale V4R….probably i will do some videos even me to put here on you tube….but HEY…you are totally on another level…you are on the Moon!!!!…the fastest road legal car and fastest road legal man Alive!!!great great respect and ammiration for you….!!!!and not to mention that you have also balls of steel!!!!
It would be a dream just to see you and your car in person but i live in italy (near Milano) even if i have some relatives in Orlando(FL)….and may be that one time i will return to them….it would be a dream….just to see and to hear you monster!!!!ah i forget i hope you will keep this ford gt for all your life and even to your heirs….since this car is in history now!!!!
Greetings to you and best wishes for the next challenge….that from what i have understood it is to go well over the 500 km/h ….😱😱😱…take care if you can!!!!
@@luigicosta4520 Thanks for the AWESOME comment, yes sir this is Johnny you are conversing with. I try to answer comment as much as I can and your comment is 100% reply worthy my friend. When your in Florida message me, if all the stars align and if the car is all together I will give you a ride!! Thanks for being a fan, Johnny Bohmer
@@JohnnyBohmerProvingGroundsSLF
i still can believe you answered to me in person…..REALLY AN HONOUR…..like your words…..i think that if i can come i would come to florida only for what you have written and my dear god sitting on your monster and have a ride with u it’s something that could cause to me an heart attack for the emotions….but like someone in an old western film says…we all should die of something😅…and thinking about it…it’s one of the most beautiful way to leave this world!
THANKS AGAIN FOR YOUR ANSWERS and for your time…i hope i will meet you SIR….But just even your answers really made my day…and will always make me happy!
Ps when do you plan to do the run over the 500km/h?
@@luigicosta4520 Hello, yes I am planning to hit 320-330 mph(515 kph-531 kph) on the next run which should be in 2025.
Chute release location makes it extra unsafe because you have to reach to it. Easy to accidentally make abrupt wteering input. small rear airbrake spoiler that would rise before parachute deployment would stabilize the car more.
Question to the channel:
10:25 I don't understand, why can't you let go off the throttle before the chute is open?
@davidg3944 gave me an answer on my previous comment here but I'm not sure.
Thanks
you are not a true king until you beatvthe Texas mile record.
How did people not see the manual lol
Ford= First on race day
yep!!
@@JohnnyBohmerProvingGroundsSLF I've been building and racing mustangs all my life, man I'd love to be a driver, there's no other feeling than becoming one with the car where your completely in tune with how the car is thinking, and to achieve the unknown
@@SoloStix AWESOME!! you are so correct, nothing like the feeling of being one with the car!!
why'd you remove the ABS?
Johnny Bohmer, he's a badass and FAST mofo!
My man!!!!! Thanks :)
How are you shifting at over 9000 RPM?
on this run 5th to 6th was 9300 rpm, when I do the next run, hopefully this year I will shift @ 9300 in each gear, shooting for 307-310 mph in the standing mile the go another 1/3 of a mile or so and try to hit 322-330 mph, should be fun!!
@JohnnyBohmerProvingGroundsSLF that's awesome man, you will make it
@@drfaticus Thanks!!!
@@JohnnyBohmerProvingGroundsSLF Yes sir
Hands gotta be on 9 and 3 o’clock
How did the Chiron managed a similar speed with way less HP and massive extra weight is beyond me...
Bugatti Chiron Supersport has Zero downforce above 250+ mph over-engineered
It's all about aerodynamics or basically more power
@@Smzxe zero downforce? I highly doubt that. The car has to be stable at those speeds. I think you meant it has little drag
@@ripptorr yes Andy Wallace the top speed driver said himself Chiron Supersport has Zero downforce above 250 mph they have matched the frontal and rear area.......
You can watch shmee150 video
Extra weight doesn't affect potential top speed unless you are talking extra several tons. Badd gt did 310 in roughly 2.5 miles standing start whereas chiron took literally double the distance with 150 mph flying start to go 6mph less.
@@jeonghopark3632 Chiron SS was faster from 100-240 mph or 180-240 mph but this Ford GT is much faster on top end higher power just makes top end so much faster
Lets see this street car vs Art is fast GTR! Street car vs street car
This GT would gap that GTR after 170 mph
m2k FTW
10:25 I don't understand, why can't you let go off the throttle before the chute is open?
over 100mph over the claimed tire limit is madness isn't it? (By madness I mean it seems unconscious)
I'm not an expert, but I can guess at it - I believe it's to ensure the chute is stable and "pulling" at the centerline of the vehicle. If the chute should fully open while it was offset to centerline, it could suddenly yaw the vehicle into an unstable orientation. Keeping the car on throttle helps ensure fast opening and more dynamic stability (maintain chassis/tire function on the tarmac), then the brakes can be applied to finish stopping the car.
Just my thoughts, hopefully the channel folks will give a complete answer.
@@davidg3944 Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to answer. Turns out I thought about my question yesterday again.
You make sense but I still wonder about about it.
The driver could freewheel the car gently and I hardly any safety issue on that. Also keeping the engine full throttle while the chute opens may put a lot of torque on the engine and the drive train so...
Anyways, thanks for your answer, I doubt the channel would answer but I will try. Cheers
Silver wheels, much better looking than black ones.
It's time to move on and go forward to a new project. This car is already so old!...
😂 cry harder
@@chadkent1241 that's what I said to your sister.

This GT wasn't full throttle he can also hit 300 mph in 1 mile

THANKS!!! JB
All i can say is Ford power for the win!! 🏁🏁
Please give me such a thing so that I can earn money on horse racing, I would win against everyone here!!! And I would give you the money back.
All Mercedes and BMW fans will be punished
That is a Monster 😮😮😮
