I can only imagine the feeling when you hit the gas pedal, but seems to me it would be a real handful to control. More power than I would ever use.

I've had the pleasure of riding in my neighbors 1200hp underground racing Gallardo which was insane. I can't even imagine twice that power.

Neat race car... not street legal by any definition.... If Street Outlaws has taught us anything is that some people drive their race cars on the street and call them street cars....

I think they mean it has lights and seats and stuff, I'm sure it won't pass any emissions tests, but neither will diesel Volkswagens I'm sure he ain't driving it to the grocery store and that video was made for the Internet, I bet the pedal was no where near the floor. My 550 hp 383 will break the tires loose from a roll.

Seems like a nice enough guy

maybe in the 2nd video he needs some active handling (to save his life ?)

Active handling isn't going to do a whole lot, if anything, with 2400HP.
