    5 G's and drinking 1.2 gallons per sec, with a down-force equaling 12 F1 race cars.

    What chassis can withstand these torque loads.

    The 10,000 bhp engines are not bolted to motor mounts.
    The engine is strapped in, so that the chassis does not have to withstand all that direct vibration & stress from the engine.

    Tires inflated to 7 psi.
    Dual Magnetos (with the juice power of an arc welder) ignites the fuel.
    At launch the engine exhaust pushes the engine down towards the pavement, with 500 kg (227 pounds) of force.

    Then in less than 4 seconds, you are doing 330 mph.
