[rightpedal]

So the guys are going for two records. The 2 cyl and Dan Stokes (much coveted!) worlds safest 98 mph Camero.

Go guys Go.

I got ten bucks on Tonya pulling the big number.

Did they shift?

Did they shift?

if they got on the track with it , they didn't have to. Open record. It brings a tear to my eye remembering the CJTV days. Freiburger has been scheming this one for years.

What looks like a Camaro, sounds like a Harley, and accelerates like an Acura? Stay tuned...

This will be the title of this adventure in the 'Legends of Hot Rodding' book......

Details: all the pistons are still in the block, the intake valves are working normally, and the exhaust valves in dead holes are hanging open 0.040. 9 psi boost. We are using 1 and 6. 4,500 pounds. Four speed: 2.25, 1.6, 1:1, .91. Rear gears 7.75:1. We will push to the 1-mile mark, then run it through the 2.

Gotta wonder why they are letting the intake valves open and close?

Don't worry, the scienced it out, it'll be fine. There's a really good fire suppression system on the car too.

32.414 mph, qualified for the record run tomorrow.

Did they just have to actually make one pass under power to qualify? haha

Pretty much...

john deere called --they want their record back

[SpiderGearsMan]

WTF is a CAMERO ??

[milner351]

I'm assuming the 7.75 is a typo - 2.75 right?

always warms my heart to see a Ford pushing a Chevy!

[SpiderGearsMan]

ford make great push cars not so good race cars

[BBR]

In this case, the push car is faster than the race car. lmao

I hope they use the chutes. That would be awesome.
