take a break from all the technical stuff and look at this little speed run.

Legendary Motorcar Company built a Super 'Cuda for SEMA and then 
decidedto find out what it could do. The car is stuffed with engine and 
rubber: a twin-turbo Viper V10 with at least 1,000 horsepower, along 
with 345-series,19-inch tires in back.

The only place they could think of to test it properly was Chrysler's 
Chelsea, Michigan Proving grounds. For good measure, the folks at LMC 
brought a Ferrari Enzo along as well.

Needless to say, in a straight line drag, the Super 'Cuda owns the Enzo, 
but the Enzo Prevails in top speed. The green monster and its turbine 
howls raced through the air so quickly that the windshield molding came 
off and the hood lifted by three inches.
