  • As Promised - Me Driving Mutt

    Here's the video of me driving Mutt down the track at the last Ohio Mile meet. At some point I'll get the GoPro pointed at the gages but not this time.

    EDIT: IIRC, this was about a 125 MPH run. There's video so it DID happen!

    ENJOY!

    Dan, for whatever reason I thought I had sent those streamers out to you....I found the damn things in the mustang when I cleaned it out for the trade-in. I have your address...they should be out your way soon.
    If you can leave two black stripes from the exit of one corner to the braking zone of the next, you have enough horsepower. - Mark Donohue

      Thanks Joe! I found out that a plastic spray paint can lid is a PERFECT fit over the pipe - a slight squeeze with a hose clamp and it's ON there. But a streamer would be a good thing. Every once in a while I start it up w/o pulling the cap off and shoot the darn thing to kingdom come. I think the streamer would help.

              Pretty cool! Sounds like you have loose marbles in a can, just busting your chops Dan.

                THANKS Russell! A different view from what I usually get and I didn't know Mutt smoked that much (can't see it from the cockpit).

                    I told you it needed more air All I know about Diesels: If you don't see smoke add fuel, if you see smoke add air!

                            Thanks Russell!

                            The pics in line show me and Mutt, of course, as well as Dick Williams in his leathers (this was his first time on any track anywhere) and the Camaro is the Maty Bros. car. They used to be active on here, Dave as "Greenjunk" and I can't remember Mike's sign-in.
