Wow, you're probably the only guy I've seen with a Terminator hit 200+mph. That has to feel insane in that car, what gear are you in and what's your rear end gear? How much whp?

The wheel horsepower is in his signature, unless that 820 number is not the current number.

Congratulations Jeremy. That is quite an accomplishment. Congrats also to M2K Motorsports.

I would think that would be enough HP to hit 200mph in a terminator, they're not to heavy.
He said he had 2:73s in another thread.
With the stock T56 that would be perfect for 5th gear.

Thanks all!

Blaine@PSI did it several years ago in a red Terminator. I believe he also went 205 (205.3 ;)). I think our setups are nearly identical from reading his older posts. The car actually felt very stable once I figured out the best part of the runway to race on. The car has 2.73's in the rear, and I go through the traps in 4th at over 7,000 rpm.

Thanks! And yes, M2K went over 300 MPH in their Ford GT. It was awesome to see. We stood right beside the car as it took off.

Standing right next to the Ford GT as it took off had to have been an awesome experience. Well, second to you breaking 205.4 mph! LOL.

Does the launch look more aggressive in real life on that FGT?

Congrats and love those wheels!!

There have been a few on the salt flats but that is many miles. I think top end was something like 224mph or 226mph with average being I think 213mph This was in 2007ish so hard to remember. It was also in a yellow Cobra. So maybe they are the fastest!
