Speed demon

Just came across this video on YouTube of my younger brother indulging his reckless pursuit of adrenaline. He bought this toy a year or so back and though it’s not a top fueler, it apparently provides plenty of excitement. I’m told it’s a 560 cubic inch big block that runs on methanol with an 871 supercharger. I think he’s gotten it as quick as 350 kph (just over 200 mph) which sounds pretty damn quick to me.

  1. I am glad my guy was always too big to fit in these cars.
    I like the Indy races and hate Nascar. Dragsters are fun too. Funny cars. Yup.
    I love the smell of methanol in the morning. Lol.

  2. Oh, Joanne TOTALLY stole my line, dammit!!

    But, they never grow up, do they?? It seems the faster the better...and what's with the fascination with danger? 200mph is FAST!
