Last week we ran on car video of a 345 foot wheelstand by this bitchin little yellow Pinto and have watched it 15 times since. The driver of the car, Cory Heckenlaible, sent us an email Saturday asking if we wanted to see the wheelstand from side of the track as well. Duh!!! Of course we did, so Cory sent us the link and that video is below. The car is actually owned by Cory’s Uncle, and the only reason Cory was driving it this particular weekend at Thunder Valley Dragway was because his car was broken and he is in a points chase. His kind Uncle gave him the Pinto so he could stay in the points, and the rest will go down in epic wheelstand history.
Now Cory is wondering if they shouldn’t take this little Pinto to Byron for the Power Wheelstand Championships. We think he should! How about you? Check out BOTH videos below.
On car video of the entire wheelstand from start to finish. This is one of the coolest views you could possibly have of this whole thing. Awesome doesn’t begin to describe it!
BYRON ! BYRON ! BYRON !
The announcer could have been a little more into what just happened.. Where’s Al Tucci when you need him?
That should be a given taking it to Byron!
