That's a bad @ss bug! 6,000 stall? What rpm do you shift at? I bet that thing is a blast to drive. Welcome!

Very Nice! Do you have any build pictures? How about chassis specs? X"s 2 I would like to see some build pics or at least some pics of the chassis. Could you change the tires and make it street legal? What class do you run in up there, is it a pro class or more of a street outlaw? Sharp. |

I watched some of the videos. Love it!!! I saw the pinks video before but didn't make the connection. Looks like your bug just about goes at the way down the track with it's driver side front wheel up off of the track. Some serious power.

Now thats an awesome VW!! Running 8 second ET's with a short wheelbase car has got to be a rush!! My front engine dragster ran 7.62 at 172 mph, but Its got 200 inches of wheelbase. That VW is faster than many old Altereds ever were!! Stick with it!! How far south do you go with the car to race?? ---Packrat
