410 WoO Sprint Car on Dyno
As promised, I uploaded a video of Guy Forbrook's World of Outlaw 410 sprint car. I know it's not an ls engine, but hey, it's still wicked. I wish my computer had real speakers.

Awesome! My buddy runs a winged 410, we go to about 3-4 outlaw shows per year..can never hang with them. He has a Kriner 410 with -12 Chapman heads...made 790 HP on Gaerte's engine dyno. I know some of the big outlaw teams are past 900 HP on an engine dyno, so I am willing to bet that car was making at least 800 to the rears..no trans, not much driveline loss. Not to mention it weighs about 1200#.
A quick pic of my buddy's car:

850hp 1400lbs = bad bitch.
A normal f-body would have to have 2200hp for the same power to weight ratio.
Here's our old rig, I spent a lot of time at dirt tracks. This was just a 360" ASCS car though, only made about 650hp, but it would hit crazy MPH on DIRT and melt over 40" worth of rubber in just a few laps.

Here is our current hauler:
And a pic I took at an Outlaw show in Joliet, IL a few years back. 3 Gaerte motors being dropped to a team. That's about $120,000 sitting there.

410 Sprint racing is a blast to see, I live close to Williamsgrove and Lincoln and get to see about 10 to 15 races a year. I love to see the wheels up coming out of turn 3 at Lincoln.

Hey guys, how did you start the car on the dyno. I have never seen a sprint car with an ignition and they have to be push started. Please advise.
My buddys race with Todd Gracey in central Pa, are you bringing the 5 car into Pa this year?
Best of Luck

I would figure (Unless they are used, etc) that they could grab a little more for those Gaerte motors. Steve and gang are great guys to work with. I also know a few guys at Ed Pink's place.
Dirt tracking is a TON of fun!
