I understand. More or less what system they are using. A standalone system like MoTec or are they using something they developed.

I've never liked the looks of them. This one looks better. The car is too fast and uncontrollable imho. 1200hp lightweights belong on the racetrack only with Pro drivers. These have a short life span and my guess is most will get wrecked from driver error or parked and never driven.

Well aware of that car. I am with you on the 1200 hp on the track only. I have a good friend building a 1200+ hp twin turbo Saleen that you might like, its WHITE. The vehicle had major traction issues with 740 hp and with the addition of 4v heads, new custom stainless headers, exhaust cutouts, sheet metal intake it should lay close to 900hp on pump gas. But when is enough enough? Cars will continue to get faster, lighter, stronger until they do not meet safety standards.

Disagree bro, u need to drive one before you call it uncontrollable. Driver error happens to anyone, no matter how much hp the car has.
