To put that into perspective, stock GT-R Nissan’s that top out at 193 achieve about 165mph in the standing mile. Big congrats to Boost Logic!

Honda has 7:29 to beat for the GT-R and an astounding 7:22 to beat the Viper.  Rumor has it, they’re atempting 7:2x with a naturally aspirated V10 and possibly AWD.
