    Yeah, that's pretty much the best burn out ever.
    He even beat him back to the line.

          Yeah, thats the one I mentioned a week ago ;D

          That burn out has to be at the top three of racing things I have ever witnessed.

          Completely bitch'n - thanks to the bang Shift crew, Chad and of course Mike Boyd.

              Wild Willie would be proud... we were midtrack, that could have been a bad rear ender, Mike Boyd did well to hug the wall. Epic moment, HRR is a religious experience not to be missed

                The re-created Wing is a fuel altered. A Funny Car chassis with a body designed to sort of look like a 23 T or a Fiat, NOT a fuel altered.

                    Still doesn't take away from the skill and excitment of the burnout. Or, are you saying that the recreated burnouts are not real?

                        The new winged express is not a funny car with a t body on it, it is a replica of the last car raced by willie with upgrades for safety, ( new style roll cage )
                        funny car fuel altered's have a wheel base of about 130 to 140 inches, the express is close to the 105 inch rule of the late 60's, I stopped by and talked to Mike and crew at the chrr to double check how close the new car was to the old one.

                          Yeah, thats what I mean. I'm certainly not saying I could drive a nitro FC, with a modern body or a fuel altered body, but they handle way better than a traditional AA/FA. Short wheelbase and high center of gravity make for evil handling.

                            I agree, Wild Willie would be proud but do you think Mike Boyd was using BOTH hands? Me and my friends used to call Wild Man the One Arm Bandit when we saw him run years ago.
