1000 sounds about right.. things to consider are he let out at 1100ft, mph is down and there was a serious headwind. and its only the 3rd pass with the car, this bitch is gonna fly!

Forgot to mention, the article said this was AS SHIPPED from GM. No tweaking done.
As black00chev said, no VIN numbers & new COPOs come w/. Powerglides.

oakley6575, I too heard 900HP, but the as shipped - no tweaking, times impress me just as much. Too bad they're rarer than hen's teeth & $90 grand!!!
