When I spotted this video I thought, "Hey, I know that guy!" Never thought I'd find myself strapped in your seat and headed down Santa Pod! Thanks for the thrill! It's been a while since I've done that. The sound is even to perfection, but I'd turn the idle up a bit to get rid of that surge. Not easy to stage when it keeps trying to run thru the brakes! Cheers! ~DT~
Yes that’s correct. Many told me it won’t work but so far we’ve run 6.51 at 211 mph (.98/60’). With no issues. With no clutch you have to ‘feel/drive it’ off the line. It’s an unrated pro- mod glide we use.
@@bobhawkins very cool! What kind of percentages are you running fuel-wise, and because of the glide are you tuning it more like an alky digger regarding the idle speeds and pump size?
@@voxnut Started at 60 then 70 and the latest is 75% may well increase further once we have a proper handle on the tune and yes’s low fat idle is best so it won’t try to push though the brakes, being a torque converter. The pump is a 15.9 , quite large by Alky standards although it all depends on what sort of power you want Ing to make.
Supercharged nitromethane burning dragsters are never boring, sweet sounding small block Chevrolet powered rail

yeah i bet the surge is a pain to manage but boy if it doesnt sound badass
“Badass” is an understatement
What an excellent video. Seen the time traveller run a few times. Thanks for the ride. 😃
Awesome pov👍
While nothing front engined burning nitro is safe, your set up looks on the " safe" side of fun.
There really is NO "safe" when it comes to a front engined dragster. It's a roll of the dice every pass....
Thanks for letting us ride along!🤠
even in idle this thing want to take off into space
Thanks for the ride along man.
That's about as quick as Mullet.
I just realized rollercoasters are slow
Those Pipes are blasting you straight in the face!

Nitro car with a powerglide?

It's a small block... Hence the 2-speed.
