Red Victor

The 'Red Victor 2' is Andy Frost's ongoing project car. In a video on YouTube.com he estimates over £100,000 or around $200,000 Canadian of work has been done to the 1972 Vauxhall Victor. Included in the parts added is a twin-turbo 9.3 liter engine and a custom-built transmission designed by Frost and Penn Auto. The vehicle is "as aerodynamic as a brick", but is capable of reaching on the track with the help of the power plant and a long list of modifications. Andy originally purchased the car for only £60 in 1981. He is now driving the Red Victor 3 which is the former world's quickest and fastest street-legal car in the 1/4 mile.

On September 13, 2014, during Hot Rod Magazine's Drag Week, Larry Larson took the world record street-legal ET with a time of 6.163, but did not beat the 230-mph record. This was later exceeded further with a 5:95 1/4 mile at 244 mph.
