A long time ago, Norwood Racing built a 4000hp "Integra" funny car.

It was remarkable for its time.. but as far as I know it never entered competition.

True. GM has the Ecotec... Chris Rado has been working with Toyota for quite a while for his Pro FWD cars.

The ITR car stands out not only for the technology (which was pretty impressive for the time) but also the legacy behind the builders. Norwood established themselves with 500 cid+ Top Fuelers, so to see them go out on a limb like that was remarkable. It's a shame things didn't materialize as they'd hoped.
