what a hell is that man .... wooow that is an insane

Holy Shit.....

the guy who sold it said he was too big to drive it comfortably

I don't think anyone is in any position to rag on this vehicle, 1,200hp on pump gas.....shall i say it again? That's right.....that's roughly 800hp more than most of your cars. (-100 or +100 or so for those who are fortunate) Exactly....unless someone in here is on a race team i believe that vehicle would own us all :hail: last time i checked "red-necks" don't put on gawdy body kits.....they start with an RIC and end with ERS....just a hit.

Wipe your eyes and recognize an amazing vehicle. :eek:

This is Steve Kamas's old car. And yes, I spent a little while trying to tune it because the guy that set it up for him had it running pig rich at about 10:1 A/F. I leaned it out a bit to try and get some better power numbers but as I recall it had high RPM problems (severe valve float) and we never got any power numbers above about 5000 RPM. I'd have to go back and look but the HP & Torque numbers never exceeded 800 Rear Wheel on the chassis dyno.

Thanks John. I couldnt remember the guys name. And, to prove my point, did he not sell the car because he couldnt drive it comfortably? I saw another member recalled it as well, but if you know, it would help.

Also, I emailed the video to be hosted, hopefully he will put it up soon.

Now that is the MOST beautiful old school vett I have ever seen, those rims are just SICK and dont even get me started on that awsome motor :drool:

I think the car is butt ugly.Twin blowers and 800 rwhp = weak.The only thing I like on the car is the wheels,the rest is hillbilly IMO.

:werd:

For real. I never liked C3 Vette's. Twin blowers is a very original idea though.

Whoa!!!!!!!!! I want to drive that car bad!

Original idea? I would have to say NO to that. Rick Dobbertin did it to 2 cars, back in the mid 80's. A unique concept, yes...but original, no. :cheers:

That looks photoshopped almost. I don't see the point of two blowers. It's a cool concept, but one can do the exact same thing. You don't see top fuelers running two blowers.

Very cool show piece though.

I think it's pretty funny when people start knocking the looks of 800-1100 hp car. Give me a break, when you're makin that much power, you can look however you want!

1100hp isn't much these days. My BONE STOCK motor will hold that. ;)

I'll knock the "looks" of a car that has 5000hp or 5hp. If it's ugly, it's ugly.
Remember. Not all chicks that have big tits are good looking.

That shit looks like it would have been in the B-Rate version of Smokey and The Bandit.

Not everyone has $50,000 to piss away on their car. If i did i'd have Sonny's Racing N/A 762ci 1,150 hp engine in my car for shits and giggles. But u know what? it costs 53 grand.

Not all chicks with big tits are hot but if my ugly big tittied woman beats up your hot big tittied woman that makes the victory that much better. :jest:

you guys are rough

that's what happens when you are used to seeing cars run 200mph. 12, 11, 10, and 9 second cars start feeling/looking extremely slow.

ummmm didnt john b say that the car never exceeded 800hp in his post?
