Watch This Turbocharged Proline 481x Powered Nova Run 6.70s At Over 200mph – Brazil Built, Brazil Raced!

I love showing off the drag racing scene in Brazil and all of South America because there’s tons of passion, interesting cars, and fast stuff down there. Lots of time when we show you a video from Brazil, Argentina, or another country thousands of miles to our south the cars are kind of strange (to us). Most models are not stuff we normally see on a drag strip here let alone the streets. Not today, baby! We’ve got a hunk of Detroit iron to show you that is an absolute hauler. This turbocharged Proline 481x powered Nova runs deep into the 6s at over 200mph and on at least one occasion in this video it does so with the front end hanging in the air multiple times as the car rockets down the track.

The cool thing about this car to us is that we understand it was wholly built in Brazil. Yes, there are a load of American parts on it (thanks guys!) but the chassis and all were down down there. We’re not saying this because it is some major breakthrough in their drag racing world as there have been capable car and chassis builders down there for years but that it strikes us as cool, that’s all. Also as many people know, the ever popular FuelTech EFI system is a Brazilian product that is getting loads of traction in drag racing Stateside.

This car is cool and we always love seeing neat stuff that hauls tail and puts on a good show. Ohhhh, one more thing. For the negative Nancys out there that blow a gasket every time they see a drag strip with fast cars on it that is not brimming with spectators and fans, check the stands in this video. It’s the way of the world, guys. Not event event is going to be a blow out. Not every Saturday at the strip is even intended on being a packed house. That’s not just true here, it’s apparently true in Brazil as well.
