  • America - where you can legally register and drive a 5,000hp race car down the Las Vegas strip and then go to the track and run 5.80's at 260mph in the quarter mile. You've got to love it! Rod Tschiggfrie was kind enough to show us the ins and outs on his crazy looking 84' Hurst Olds..well what's left of it at least..

But Tom doesn't say its his motor, Tom doesn't take all the credit and is a very humble guy. Gives the credit where its needed and does a good job with it. Also says "his" motor is designed to last forever and be great for the street, Yet stated at the start of the video that's a brand new motor and in less then 2 days it grenaded with only probably 5-7 passes on it.....

      Exactly for the most part built cars are usually in far better shape and their systems are pretty far above what the minimum that the factory puts out.
      Also on the other side some of these cars are badly put together as well and are just as bad as the cheap scrap the manufacturers put out so. Luckily in a lot of place exceptions can be made per case. I used to get pulled all the time for my mods but multiple trips to the garage for safeties after having plates yanked tells them too that that vehicle is fine and noted to be in better shape than a lot of cars on the road. They stopped pulling me over for it now. Lol it only took years though 😆😄

      The only rule for Hot Rod Drag week is that the car has to drive from track to track for a week with no "support" vehicle. Larry Larson drove his S10 pulling a trailer from Kansas City, Mo to Las Vegas & back a couple years ago & ran a 5.95 / 250 pass. I would say towing a trailer 3000 miles would qualify as a "street car". Larson & Tom Bailey have been in the 5s for almost 10 years. Bailey has run 5's on DOT legal tires, too.

    @SJR_Media_Group 2 роки тому +3

    Great power to weight ratio... if you can effectively transfer power to the pavement, your power/weight ratio determines ET and Trap Speed. 1 to 1 is the magic baseline - (1,000 hp / 1,000 lbs) Top Fuel is probably 10 to 1. I developed curves awhile back that graphed P/W with estimated ET and MPH. I used actual data from different forms of motor racing to check my methods. Estimated and actual numbers were very close. Also, graphed G's using P/W. 1 G = 21.9 mph/sec/sec. If your car accelerates at 1 G (average), you are going 219 mph after 10 seconds. Top Fuel has amazing P/W and launches at high G's. In real life as speed increases aerodynamic drag increases, resulting in G's that are lower over time.

    Living in Indiana have owned 15 winter beaters so far. All registered all drove on the road. This car is far safer then all those combined. To say it’s not street legal is ridiculous. Crash your car into a wall at 90mph. Most likely you won’t survive this thing hitting a wall at 200 and he could walk away without a scratch. Doesn’t matter if it looks like a race car it beats all the safety standards of a normal day to day car. One of the safest cars you’ll ever see on the road.

      Given how many people are here talking about living in the same town and seeing him drive it, plus him having a larger radiator and fuel cell for the street, I believe he puts a decent amount of street miles on it.

      Why would there be insane crankcase pressure? The boost doesn’t pressurize the the inside of the block. If it did that would be called excessive leak down from failed or worn parts like pistons, rings, valve guides, valves, etc. there are turbo cars running 80+psi on big blocks.
