Doug's daily driver

[speed_junkie]

**update** 1/4 mile video in post #19

My buddy Doug is not your typical go-fast kinda guy...let's just say he's unconventional. Past cars included roots blown '85 GT, '98 triple blck Cobra conv w/ 700rwhp TT (no roll bar b/c it wld look ugly w/ the top down), a Vortech supercharged 300c SRT8 and his first motorcycle was a Hyabusa b/c he didn't want something slow.

His family has grown so he was looking for the ultimate family truckster
but with balls...So he bought a 2wd '07 Escalade, custom built a TT setup in his garage and had it tuned locally.

Build
Twin Turbo Escalade

Interesting but expensive build. Man, 617whp! That's insane for an SUV.

Holy crap! Is that a record?

Missed this thread the first time around, but damn that thing is impressive. Any idea how much it weighs? It has to be 7k+ pounds given the times it ran. Awesome DD though.

 

[speed_junkie]

Here's the first ever pass..12.12 @ 116mph
