My first three cars were Bugs. When I was into them, I bought the biggest engine you could get at the time. 2180 stroker with dual Dellorto carbs. Sigh. The memories.
wowzers the first beetle that raced the dune buggy , yyer clutch is slipping so bad its a wonder you made it down the track , you be needing a lock up centrifical clutch with that turbo boosting , at the very least a multiple disc clutch with high out put springs
it's a 1/4 mile track, and there was a least one license pass that was run at the full 1/4 mile distance, but the m-spec outlaw turbo class was run at 1/8th mile distance... marty staggs started the class at irwindale, which is an 1/8th mile track, so that's the distance they were running at fontana.
thx for checking the vid out... there isn't any porsche or subaru stuff, it's loosely based on vw aircooled motors, but since it's outlaw there aren't many rules, so some of the guys are running things like aftermarket race cases... in the beginning the rules were pretty simple, i'm not sure how much it's evolved since then: "The class was limited to draw-through turbos and normally aspirated engines with nitrous, but no intercoolers, EFI, or twin power adders like turbo with nitrous. The engine had to be in the rear of the car, but it could be a pan car or a chassis car. "
that's a good question... i would suggest calling up a race shop, like www.jayceevw.com/ or ronlummusracing.com/ they will be able to provide the best current info.

padapadapaadaaaaaaaaaa! I am so glad we were able to disable the speakers at the European Bug In....
That Ghia. I love the launch
I'm not sure how long I could stand to listen to Chamberlain's voice drowning out what I came to hear.
It was my fault, I was standing too close to the trackside speaker while shooting.
Really Enjoyed this Video ! Awesome V-dubs !
That Karmann Gaia did a fine job!
1:00 blue car very good

That Ghia gets with the program, great 60ft time I bet.
Well yeah cuz they can run a bigger tire with the wider body
Wow I bought my Webers from Eric 😎
Oh dear. Oh dear the Golden fury
Very good very nicy 🤩🤩🤩
What distance are they running? It's not a quarter mile, right?
it's a 1/4 mile track, and there was a least one license pass that was run at the full 1/4 mile distance, but the m-spec outlaw turbo class was run at 1/8th mile distance... marty staggs started the class at irwindale, which is an 1/8th mile track, so that's the distance they were running at fontana.
DragRacingTV Thanks for responding. I saw the run times in the 6's, which prompted me to ask. So what do they run in the 1/4 mile? 13's?
i think that on average, it would probably be well into the 10's, at least, some of these cars have been a lot quicker than that.
@@trallicus3758 9s & 8s
Is this 1/4 mille ?
it's a 1/4 mile track, but i think that they were running 1/8 mile, because the home track for the series was 1/8 mile, at irwindale.
what motors are they using?is it vw or porche or Subaru?

finally someone proving what can be done with a great build and proper tuning on originally 60-90 HP Volkswagens
Corvair 6cyl. W/stock Monsa turbo?
@@4406bbldb Nope

that's a good question... i would suggest calling up a race shop, like www.jayceevw.com/ or ronlummusracing.com/ they will be able to provide the best current info.
A lot of clutch slipping:(
Im pretty sure Mark Deacons 'red rider' from the 80's would still smoke these.

Very sad footage of Hector Urias in the black bug. He was murdered at his shop in El Monte months after this race.
I think I remember that, sad.
