The Huston/Gillig F3R Procharged SBF Pro 5.0 mustang ran 6.64 @214mph with a race weight of 2590lbs and they plan on going faster with one of Procharger's new chain-driven race blowers.... Wonder how long before they are going as fast as Chuck Samuel's 106mm single turbo SBF Pro 5.0 car (it has been 6.40's @220mph)?

Should be interesting to see if the blower guys can catch up!
 
Thats really cool. I like when they do their best to equal out the power adders. Is there any other penalty other then weight for turbo cars? I know nitrous has a very low weight penalty.
