The particular model used in the quarter mile test has a 6.35-liter 387.8 cu twin-turbocharged V8 engine. It can develop horsepower of 1,287 bhp. The manufacturer, SSC (Shelby Super Cars) North America, released an updated version of the engine in 2012 that has a 6.94-liter 423.6 cu V8 engine. The car has a rear mid-engine, rear-wheel drive layout. It does not have ABS brakes and traction control like other modern cars because of the company’s desire to make it a driver’s vehicle.
