I was thinking about that too after I looked at the pdf SBDave posted.

Special order?

Maybe it's not a big deal as long as the car never hooks up?

So badass. I wonder what the budget is on these?

Seems like I read that about the Quadraduece that Stielow built and Radrides re-did. Doesn't weigh anything and doesn't hook up, so the AWD doesn't grenade.... VERY interested to see if JetHot's Double Down lives up to it's potential.

I noticed Block's tires are paint labeled at the factory, it would be interesting to know the compounds (how hard and many) he uses.

Awesome driving ! Wonder if traction control is off?

I like the dogbox idea there, seems he always has the engine pegged to max too!!

Finally sat down to watch this. By far most impressive display I've ever seen on the streets! WOW!

If you want to nerd out over the detailed specs of the car, Chris Harris does a walk around of the "Hoonicorn" which was uploaded by the Hoonigans on YouTube. You'll want to watch it. I believe Harris also mentions that the tires are less grippy and produce more smoke than the normal tires.

Living what all of us can only dream about--well, me anyways. That was way cool. That motor RPM's quick---I love when he comes onto the 110 fwy--he bounces it off the rev limiter which is somewhere around 9g's. Sweetness!
