Alexander's car is for real and it is extremely fast ..... I know. 
I also know his heads are off and when back together it will be just a tad faster. 
Several years ago VR wanted to buy KA (at an extremely generous price ..... in excess of 200K), I wouldn't sell. he sent his to Protomotive and the rest is history.
I know his car is very fast...but the quarter mile times and top speeds runs dont mean **** without data that can be verified.

All that means is advertised quarter mile times are not too terribly important to him. I do know if you were to place a wager against him with another 996tt, he would probably take it.

If you ran an 8 second quarter and you said so and someone who I respect verified it or backed you up ....... I would believe you. Do you get my point?
I can say one thing for certain, our value systems are different from yours. I am not saying your values are bad ..... just different.

I watched his car run and I know exactly what it did. I have not heard him claim any particular time in public and I'm certainly not going to reveal what I saw if he doesn't say something first.

Healthy competitions are always good for the soul. But that video was insane, not to mention it was from few years ago.
