Well, you knew it was bound to happen.
I would rather see "real" engine work opposed to NOS on a daily driver, but oh well.
11.581 @ 126.350 in the 1/4 mile

Other things I noticed:
The car appears to have aftermarket wheels, but can't be sure. If so, additional traction may have been from drag radials or slicks. The burnout suggests slicks. Is it necessary to do a burnout on drag radials?
Those angel eyes are modded! Very nice!
Just make sure the tires are NEW when you buy it.

Possible engine damage is more of a concern with this car using the juice.

No wheelspin at launch and it seem to bog down a little bit.
Holding the engine higher than 1,800RPM will almost certainly achieve a faster trap and quicker ET.
Damn the US launch control.

WOW! Astonishing anyway.
Add a hamman upgrade to 600bhp and you'll get low 11s or high 10s.
