He didn't drive or work on it for like 2+ years & got back into it...
I spend more time than that doing a burnout.

I was thinking the same thing about having bars on it once before....He didn't drive or work on it for like 2+ years & got back into it...
It's done that a lot prior too...
I think it had wheelie bars (at one time) & he broke them
no idea why he doesn't use them still or again
& Yes it's a bit easier today to make huge power w/huge cids,
his is a 8:71 Blown Alum 526cid EFO Hemi, pretty much no expense spared...
He's doing it with a 6 speed, hydraulic clutch, sort of lil' tires 29 x 10.5's (I think)
Many are near 588-600 cid is the new norm,
to even run just 9's in a 3,000# car with 31" & up big tires
some do it on a 275 Radial too, that's nuts...
& yes makes it easier to do today...
Still have to know what you're doing...
But mostly all the checkbook builders with deep pockets helps
(Helps the SEMA industry too)
Big boost, blown Roots or centrifugal, probably most responsible for the fast stuff
& tunable to nth degree EFI, & some have traction control, & $10k shocks too
it all has certainly aided in it, people knowing how to tune it
&/or they will sell you a program & also their programmers, for a fee
I couldn't believe the torque steer the first time to drive a GLHS Omni. Took off a bit easily in first and power shifted 2nd and it was all I could do to keep it in my lane (street run) against a Camaro. I think him seeing the Omni moving around skeert him off lol
I do too. A couple of years ago and buddy and I went to The Hemi Fest at the now defunct Houston track in Baytown. Any car with a Chrysler Hemi in it was welcome. There were a few off brand cars that showed up with the G2 Hemi but most had the G3 engines. The most iconic car that showed up with a G2 was a 55 Chevy 210 (?) 2dr sedan. It ran pretty good but don't remember the numbers. He didn't get much attention either maybe because most of the cars out there that night were using the late model engine? Seems like those guys are a different breed and could care less about the older Hemi engines.....? Another car that showed up with the G2 engine was a....yup, a Gremlin. It ran even better and got more attention than the 55 probably because it was pretty fast and had better paint. The 55 sorta looked like Finnegan's but not as nice.
You think this is a hate group?? Go to a Chevy site and let them know you are a Mopar guy LOL
If you watch the video, he's trying. 10* timing, pedaling it out of the box, trying all the usual fixes.
Making 'crazy' power isn't all that easy....but with lots of money, it's not so hard. What you do with it is the key.
