thats what i thought but its matt from meridan who sponsors this board so he must know about KA so why would they make that statement.
i know 561 cant compete with chads car but it is 10hp more then tyson blue beast so it must be a beast itself, id like to here more about it

Evan/Merhbani,

the fastest porsche is the carrera GT. That would still Romp on our Killer Angel.

Killer angel does 11.4
CGT does 10.8 - 11.2

So I wonder what car they're talking about.

I love it when people say "I/we have the fastest Porsche blah blah in America, the world the universe". That's so modest heh... Don't they get it? Someplace, sometime, there's always somebody else that's faster...

Also the only way to say it's faster than Tyson's would have been to show up at the same time, place as we all did for the event (we did invite Meridian) and compete under the same conditions. You can take a car out of context with a single dyno but the only way to see for sure is to compete under the same conditions and with the same driver in my opinion. As for it being faster than CJVs I wouldn't bet 5 cents...

I love seeing that kind of stuff though! A friend of mine with a WRX waggon (yes it's heavily modded) was at the drag strip one day for Battle of the Imports and there was this red WRX with mundo stickers and sponsors but the only thing you could read was "Fastest WRX in the world". Sure enough they lined up and this lil' waggon punked him.

It's going to be showing up this Sunday at the Village Coffee Roaster in Woodland Hills, they had some guy drive down there two days ago when me, Eyal and Noel were there and "spread the word". Should be interesting/entertaining.
