Pretty sure I can two in there if I really tried. The bay furthest away is a lot wider.I think you can fit one more MK7 in there!
I actually am personally acquainted with him. Good guy and fun to hang with. Have met him at more than a few race events over the years. We are shooting at 740/750 at the wheels with this build. Calvo Motorsports in Austin, TX is doing the build.You seen a guy on Instagram by the name of @sneakysnakes? He has a 5th Gen with a 9L stroker from Prefix... He made 722 to the wheels so I would guess in the ballpark of 850 at the crank like yours. That car is N/A goals... Got anywhere I can see the deets on your build?

There are two vipers that frequent my mechanic. One is 900 crank and the other is 1500 crank. They're track only racecars for these guys, so when we go out I'm always looking for them. My gti touches 125-130 down the local main straight, my 370z touches 135-140. My buddy's highly modified E92 M3 does 135, and a tuned zl1 ss (or whatever the top spec camaro is called) touches 155. Those guys are doing 170 and 180 in the same place!! Insanity!!I actually am personally acquainted with him. Good guy and fun to hang with. Have met him at more than a few race events over the years.

Yeah, that would be the guy, Antonio Calvo. Nice guy, great to his customers and does great work. https://calvo-motorsports.com/Isn't that the shop that had the Viper in Sorted you tube competition with Matt Farah
I had to squeeze the loaner into the garage since my HOA threatened to tow it for parking in empty guest parking. I hate HOA’s but it’s unavoidable out here in my price range.
Im so happy it fits though!

Hahaha MK7 is my daily. It’s going to be weird going back that’s for sure!You got an Audi S8 as a loaner?! What do you drive normally?! A Pagani?!

secret time: I live close to the emissions lab and my car was selected to do some government mandated testing for a few weeks. Part of the deal was a loaner and my options were SQ5, Q8, A7, S8. If you grew up loving Ronin and spending 20 years driving some form of a golf or Jetta what would you pick? Lol
"I'll take a loaner S8. Can you have it ready for me in Nice. I have some reenactments to do"Hahaha MK7 is my daily. It’s going to be weird going back that’s for sure!

My mom has a Q5 and 2 of my friends have B8/8.5 S5's so that was sort of a "been there done that" for me. I almost went A7 but I'd rather have an S or RS for that. I remember the brief time I worked at an Audi dealer a decade ago the A8L had massage seats so that is what really sold me on the S8. That and 560hp V8 Quattro with 4WS. It is such a sleeper, especially this generation. When I take Kanan to Mulholland as part of my commute, it floats. I mean, turns that are sketchy in the GTI at 60mph are buttery smooth in this land barge. It is unreal!SQ5 for sure, but the S8 would be second on my list
