New Twin Turbo build

[nautoncall]

Anyone know this car? It was built by Nth Moto who did my Viper but it looks like a pretty sweet build. I absolutely love the TC and Boost control on the center console. Supposedly a 13 yr old is going to pilot in an upcoming race.

Well known car. Has been through a few TT iterations. Can't manage to break 200 mph in the 1/2 though. California owner. His 13 y.o son races his Gallardo ST and McLaren, and I guess now his FGT.

Just was revealed at our local cars and coffee. Really top quality build. I've used these guys on all my cars for various needs and they are the real deal. This car will finally make 200 in the half mile.

if i remember correctly the intake looks like the one that underground was developing for a ford GT a while back. but definitely looks like a clean build.

Aaron and Nth Moto refreshed my Heffner TT Viper and I will agree they are top notch. No shortcuts. I asked Aaron about this car and he said redline is now over 8000 and it screams at WOT. Anxious to see what it does. He won't tell final numbers.

He told me 8400 RPM redline and it screams. Output is a secret [emoji848] but the half mile times should give us a pretty good idea.

The kid and his dad (deferred application) are the source of Salomondrin's angst and rage...

Interesting, if they have a Buggati, then I don't think they will have a problem securing one on the secondary market. Us "normal" folks may have a problem if prices skyrocket.

And he's apparently had some not so nice things to say about GT's in general....although he owns 3 (maybe 4?) of them:confused

It's ok to be frustrated and speak your mind. Job was frustrated at God and 1/2 the Psalms are David angry so it's ok to question the great FGT

He's gone faaaarrrr beyond "questioning" and moved squarely into angry, bitter and entitled. It's Ford Motor Company's GT to allocate to whom they see fit. We all agreed to those terms when filling out the initial application. Nowhere did it state . . . "except for xxxxxx, if you are that person then you are guaranteed." He's really lost his senses as it pertains to this matter in my opinion and it doesn't benefit him in any way. He should let it go and enjoy the many things he has going for him in his life.

I'm sure lots of folks with that kind of money feel "entitled" and never told "NO".

Agreed. Just seems that on many other fronts he is reasoned and grounded. This one though is bringing out the worst in him. JMO

Anybody else skeptical of an 8,400 redline on a 5.4? 4.17" stroke.

Comparatively, the Voodoo 5.2 has a 3.66" stroke.

Is he trying to set a piston speed record?

I think the issue at hand isn't about getting a car or not it's about being told no. Many powerful and wealthy individuals are not used to hearing those words and react poorly when they do. I've been watching the NFGT application process and it seems this is the core issue.

Also I don't doubt Aaron and Nth Moto so I believe the 8400 RPM redline. I can't attest to any knowledge for how long it stays together at those speeds.

 

[Xcentric]

Indeed, the core issue. That engine is >$100k.

Too much is never enough. For some. SAD! lol.

Truly an inspirational role model for 13-year-old boys everywhere.

I shift my mile car at 8400 rpm and can turn it higher if need be. When we cross the mile marker in 5th the car is about at 8600 when we let out. The car build looks nice and the folks at nth moto seem to do great work. Now depending on how much power they make and who built the motor will show how long the motor lives. Good luck to them on a great build!!!!

EDIT: nevermind.

Put him in a shifter cart with the rest of the 13 year olds. Ridiculous.
