Killer All Star Team:
The TranStar Racing Team will custom design and hand-build a street-legal, or racing carbon fiber/aluminum Dagger GT to meet your preferences and tastes. This car is an uncompromised, unrestricted, exhibition race car designed to dazzle any onlooker, whether at a road course, NHRA drag strip or a top speed event like Bonneville - - or just cruising the beach. We will meet with you personally to go over all of the options you may wish to consider and make sure the car we build for you is exactly the car you want. We expect, and intend, to set records for production Supercars in all categories of racing. If you prefer a more comfortable street car, we can provide a more comfortable suspension system to fit your preferences. We also offer optional bolt-on packages (parachutes, etc.) so you can meet the requirements of the racing events that you may wish to participate in. Our race cars for drag and landspeed racing are equipped with 4130 Chromoly steel frames and roll cages to meet Bonneville (SCTA) and NHRA safety specs.Matt Jackson with ‘After FX Customs’ will meet with you to help you select show-winning custom paint options that run the gamut from ‘mild to wild’. He will also help you select show-quality interior options from ‘race’ to ‘sport’ to ‘luxury’ if you prefer. Each car will be unique and hand-built by highly experienced award-winning craftsmen to fit your specific preferences while meeting our own tight carbon fiber body tolerances and standards of excellence associated with the world’s top luxury cars. Simply put, you should not be able to buy a better, faster car at any price. The Dagger is based on a creative mid-engine concept car, by industrial designer Ivan Luccion. The current CAD design was created by the talented Tom Van Ryn. Please refer to our detailed specs on our “specifications” page.
2700 Horsepower and 315 mph/500kph This is the website for the Dagger GT, the world’s fastest, 2700 horsepower,315 mph, mid-engine Supercar. The ‘Super’ in‘Supercar’ will soon have a newmeaning. Our aerodynamicist (consultant to NASA) has calculated that our 315 mph goal is achievable based on preliminaryhorsepower, frontal area, coefficient of drag and drag-area computations. We will add the hardtop and add ballast to run at this speed at Bonneville. Two experienced 300 mph Bonneville owner-drivers and one 436 mph Bonneville racer have joined our race team and also suggested that we should be able to reach our 315 mph goal.
No. 1 Top Team - The TranStar All Stars! The Dagger GT™ will be produced by an All-American All-star team of existing, experienced, proven race car builders, engine builders and racing parts suppliers. Phil Frank, the designer of the former record holder, the Saleen S7, is on the team as our Consulting Director of Design. Tom Nelson routinely produces 2000+ hp multi-fuel twin-turbo 427 and 632 cubic-inch racing engines for his many satisfied clients. Mike Mendeola will provide a custom, 6-speed, 300 mph transaxle and is the top US transaxle fabricator. Our team includes proven race car and show car winners and racing chassis-builder. Dagger GT™ components are made in the USA and are state-of-the-art, but proven, reliable, off-the-rack, low-risk technologies. There are no rookies on our team nor any unproven parts in the Dagger GT™.
World Record Goals - The Dagger GT™ is being designed specifically to break the 300 mph barrier and be the first-ever Supercar to do it. The Dagger GT™ will be a mid-engine, limited production, streetable, racing roadster that is expected to establish world records in its class for top speed, slalom and acceleration. The Dagger will feature a removable hardtop. This car will attempt a world record-setting top speed of 315 mph, for modified turbocharged fuel sports cars at Bonneville and it will run at the Virginia International Raceway to attempt to secure the “Lightning Lap” record on the USA’s top road course. It has been mathematically computed that the car will run under 6.6 seconds and over 205 mph in the quarter mile and less than 1.2 seconds for the zero-to-sixty record. The Dagger’s competing ‘supercars’ run over 2.8 seconds in the 0 to 60 and over 9.8 seconds in the quarter mile. The Dagger’s nearest competitors will not be close in terms of performance or value. This will not be a debatable issue once the performance runs are completed and independently timed.
In short, this will be the number one performing supercar in the world. It will have a unique, dazzling ‘edgy’ appearance and will feature a polished Nelson Racing Engines multi-fuel aluminum 632 Twin Turbo. The vehicle components will include off-the-shelf, proven technology and will be fabricated by the top race car builders in the U.S.
Programmable Horsepower - Tom Nelson’s big-horsepower turbo engines are amazing. They will automatically add boost and increase racing fuel mix depending on the fuel and boost map you specify and we input into the engine management computer. It can produce 1300 HP on pump gas and 2000 HP on race fuel which are provided via two fuel tanks and dual fuel injectors for each cylinder. If driven normally, with a light foot, fuel consumption is not unreasonable for a big block engine. At 300 mph please expect to empty the gas tanks in under 5 minutes…which will be a few minutes after the street tires melt! (300 mph land-speed tires are one of our many options offered that you get to choose from as part of your purchase... so you can reach “empty” at 300 mph without the tires melting)
Retail Pricing for this car is subject to change and has not yet been finalized but will be in the $750,000+ range depending on the model and options you prefer to include in your custom vehicle. You may customize your vehicle to your tastes with a host of combinations of options available. For example, you may choose a ‘race’, ‘sport’, or ‘luxury’ interior with real wood, stitched leather and velour finishes, if you wish.
Brand Name - Someone asked us, “How are you going to compete with brand name luxury cars like the Bugatti Veyron, the Ferrari Enzo, etc.?” We said, “Our brand will be displayed in the timing lights. We will be branded by our performance.” How does “world’s fastest” sound to you as a brand? Do you want a ‘prancing horsey’ logo or a stampede of two thousand horses? The Dagger GT is a ‘performance dagger’ in the heart of its restricted and compromised “competitors.” Case closed. The custom-made Dagger GT is strictly for enthusiasts that are not satisfied with 200 to 250 mph cars, and 600 to1200 hp cars that cost over $950,000 to over two million dollars.
Bonneville Pit Passes - If you are a qualified, possible buyer, passionate about performance and value, we invite you to join us at the Miami Top Gun Standing Mile and at Bonneville as our VIP guest in our pit area. These passes are very limited. We will include everyone at our Victory Party after Miami’s Top Gun and Bonneville. E-mail us.
