He either has NOS in addition to his ESS VT2 or he's just making up nomenclature. He could have called it a VT4 or VT9 for what it matters.

Anyways, as Iand112 pointed out, those numbers we're not that impressive for 900 horsepower. There's a foul plot afoot, and it ain't my feet!

900hp is possible
Interesting video. Bad launches on both. 12.26 for 1/4 mile on the 300c, huge burnout halfway down. Mile speed is good on the M6, in comparison the Bugatti Veyron covers the standing mile at approx 204mph, 326km/hr in about 25sec. So, 28 sec at around 193 mph with 900hp is believable, VT3 who knows.

Just because someone says they have a VT3 does not mean anything. This was confirmed by ESS when someone in a foreign country posted a video of an M6 and says VT3......never even drove the car, just started it up

Mine will be VT15 shortly

I think it might be the same M6 which claimed to have the VT3 kit. That car had NOS in it. But regardless, the car in this video is fast, despite the 1/4 mile time. I mean it killed the SRT8 which supposedly has 950hp!! Hell if I was ESS, I'd say yeah, that's our VT3. LOL!
