WannaGOFAST has some of the best locations for their events, including this past weekend in Clayton, Georgia. Tucked back in the Blue Ridge Mountains, Heaven’s Landing airport is a gorgeous 5,069ft runway that allows for the competitors to really push their cars to the limit. This weekend couldn’t have had more perfect weather and conditions. Multiple records and personal bests were made in the 2 days of half mile racing. Here are a few of the many highlights from this past weekend at WannaGOFAST Georgia!

1. Moe Alzuraiki’s Underground Racing Built 6 Speed Lamborghini –  Simply said, this car is incredibly fast.

4. DBR High Performance SRT8 Jeep –  Going 180mph is quite the feat for most cars, but what about in a SRT8 Jeep? If you’re thinking the way I’m thinking, that’s just crazy. The guys over at DBR High Performance took their Turbo SRT8 Jeep down the 1/2 mile this past weekend and shocked everyone. They ended up running 180.28mph, which makes it the Fastest SUV in the 1/2 mile in the world!
