There was this aftermarket Chevy that did 0-60mph in 1.9 seconds I believe. I spoke about it with bmwrules the other day. Hope he reads this thread so he can either confirm or clarify with details.
Motor Trend had an article a couple of years ago on a souped up Corvette that did 0-60 in 1.9 seconds. I'll see if I can find more info when I get home.

Of course for ultimate speed you have your top fuel NHRA dragsters that can do 0-330mph in less than 4.5 seconds.

I think it had drag slicks though, which help quite a bit in a car with that much power going to the rear wheels.

Yepp, and the correct bhp figure is 802

A crazy thing is that they offer it with up to about 1000bhp and they are still cheap as candy
