There aren’t many things more embarrassing in life than losing at the drag strip. Especially when the other vehicle is a Chevy Express cargo van. But if it’s a loss to the mad men at AMS Performance, which have given their shop van 700hp, it’s understandable. Thanks to factory AWD, a 72mm turbo, a Z06 Corvette cam, methanol injection, and other necessary modifications, the fat 6,000-pound keister can reach the 60-foot mark in 1.7 seconds, and run the quarter mile in 12.49 seconds at 108 MPH. Not bad for a brick on wheels, to say the least.
If nothing else, we can hope that this insane van will inspire other crazy people to follow suit. Anyway, here’s the video below – Enjoy!

I have a soft spot for the Express. I’m sad to say that AMS has beat me to the punch.
Except I would have mounted the engine in the back. 😉
