Lets not forget that the fastest quartermile on record for an IRS car is a Supra - somehwere in the 7's. Not a Cobra, not a Viper, but a Japanese made Supra. Scary heh? There are two Supras around here that produce between 800 - 1000 RWHP. The faster one has run in the 8's. These cars are running Chevy automatic transmissions. Turbos can produce some awesome power. I once saw an older style RX7 with is 71 or so cubic inches and a turbo twice the size of the motor run in the 8's. Technology cometh.
