Wink Video: Planes, SharkWerks & the US Air Force

Hey folks, I just wanted to share this quick video we put together of the SharkWerks track exhaust from a couple of weekends ago. Thanks to our fine chums at Beale AFB we were actually able to perform a great deal of testing on a rather unique enclosed location. Kermit really did stretch her legs through all the gears as you'll see below

I can't get into too many details at the moment but suffice it to say that come June of this year keep your eyes and ears open and TV or DVR set on. There have been some very strange reports:

And yes we did manage a 175.8mph in the mile. This was done without any tape or aerodynamic aids and a 500hp na motor

Very impressive Alex, you need to do a 3.9 upgrade equivalent for the M96/M97 block.

Was that Tanner driving Kermit?

Thanks very much and it's not aired yet. The show is due to start in June I believe.

Alex, car sounds great! And you definitely gotta love being able to get shots taken next to jet fighters.

I love how you don't see the car anymore, but you can still hear it.

Great job!
