Here’s a short documentary showing the build-up and road testing of a twin turbo Ford GT that aims to put out about 1000 horsepower to the wheels. The owner wanted a car he could drive and race on the street. The result is two Garret G35 ball bearing turbos replacing the stock supercharger. They use the Ford air-water intercooler, but have to fabricate plenty of custom parts to make it all work. It shows a road test with about 820 RWHP / 700+ RWTQ toward the end of the video:

Ford GT Busted, Again

Ford GT drivers must have some friction with police (remember the last video, Ford GT runs from Police?)

This guy was on another gumball run and was busted for speeding. The dialog between the cop and the driver is pretty funny. There’s also a nice doughnut at the end from a mighty Corvette.

When you’re flagged driving a little over the speed limit in a 200 MPH supercar, it seems the best thing to do is downshift.

This looks like they’re on some kind of Cannonball run, but I couldn’t find more for the specific clip. Something about 2-way radios and multiple scanners reminds me of the Teckademics Gumball 3000 videos like this classic clip:
