A new world record for a fastest production car. How long time will it hold? In km/h it is over 500.

This car was reving slow up until after 250mph... up until then it sounded like it was on a Sunday stroll..

^ yes, weird. And check the "stability" of the steering wheel. That is likely caused by computer assisted speed adaptive steering aid, at those speeds

Decided to keep that 2 stoke bike going just for something to screw around with during the winter months. Put the engine in a different bike (24") that I didn't mind modifying and installed a brand new stock top end with a clone Dellorto PHBG DS 19mm carb to replace the crap 14mm one. Haven't messed with the carb too much yet but out of the box it runs okay, pulls a lot harder already and it seems a bit lean so it should have more in it. Genuine Dellorto parts work in the clone so it's easy to find tuning parts for it. Hopefully after this I should be able to get any bike jetted pretty well.

And here's another lady doin her thing, wheels up, shifting like a MOFO - No backing off the gas either! You don't have to watch it all and the action starts about 2:15 into the vid.

That's not a stick car. Auto with a ratchet shifter.

Love that gasser, don't think I've ever seen a shifter that tall in a drag car.

That's not a stick car. Auto with a ratchet shifter. I know - Used one of those shifters in the V8 S10 I had. Most likely a manual valve body in it so it was like a clutchless manual trans - I also had that in a Camaro with a Powerglide.

That's the slow model GTO. I had a 70 Judge for about 12 years. It had the Ram Air IV 400 motor in it. Faster/more HP than the 455. Hate the Trans Am steering wheel on that car BTW.

Agreed that's more of the family mans GTO.
I doubt if A/C was even an option on the Ram Air IV.
