More like HEMI POWER FTW.



471 Hemi is what's lies under the hood of the Nova in the vid.

I think Larry Larson's Nova is more impressive because it is street legal. It was the the fastest street car in America until earlier this year:

I see your nova and raise you make carlyle's corvette who runs a 6.58 with IRS and an LSX

It's no longer a street legal car but could be as it still has working headlights and taillights.

It seems that the Hemi powered Nova has a lot left in it seeing that it trapped 224.9 mph on a throw away 7.30 pass at 2:04 in the vid and then had the same exact 224.2 mph trap speed on his 6.57 pass at 3:04. in the vid.
