Supercars Exposed: TechArt GT Street

Tonight, the Speed Channel's show "Supercars Exposed" aired an unforgettable super car shoot-out at California's National Guard Los Alamitos JFT Base.

The shoot-out pitted 12 street legal vehicles against each other. TechArt and CEC brought out their 630hp TECHART GT Street Porsche 997 Turbo. Other competitors such as the Hennessy Viper Venom 1000, and Hennessy Ford GT1000, Lamborghini Superleggera, as well as VRALEXANDER's mystory 996 Turbo were out to play.

If you guys didnt catch it, ill try to find the full episode on Youtube. What a fun episode, probably my favorite one so far this season.

Props to TechArt, as well as all the other competitors for bringing their A-game to an unforgettable event...

nice vids! but on the circuit, isnt the car n the right disadvantaged? both cars seem to have to go the same distance until Rcar has to come on the left side?!? or is it just the vantage point throwing me off
