I saw the car run in person (at AZ dragstrip). Great looking car that Todd Z himself
told me was an anomaly (faster than all others) as far as GT700's go. This one just felt
stronger. I have written records of the trap speeds that day but most were in the 134-137 mph zone. Then the car went d m KABOOM on an AZ highway and there has been much argument about what caused it. (I have no knowledge of what caused it).
I do know that the "hat backwards" DMK was very agressive on wanting to run more boost and did not seem to fear blowing it up. I believe he said "then I can do my Monster Build". Now...where is the car??

Man that place is a **** hole, someone buy it just to get the car out of there..Wonder what happened ?? Repo?? Also the "plumbed for NOS" looks like it had the old hidden nos system,that would explain the motor blowing up....and why it ran a little faster than other gt700's

No actually it was not hidden the NOS was there to spray down the intercoolers,It was never plumbed into the motor(although the owner did want it)The motor blew because of driver error ( shifted to wrong gear under WOT)Type2 over like 6000rpm over the limiter or something crazy like that.

Yes,
The car was beautiful.
If you want to run a quarter mile time like DMK's white one all you need to do is
make your car very lightweight, add GT700 kit, run 17" drags and spray NO2
on your Intercoolers and wella...He had $100K in mods.
