I am not sure if there is anybody from Rad Rides by Troy on here, but I just wanted to say congrats on their Salt Flat record :thumbsup: .

David

thats awesome. Congrats to Troy and the gang

Congrats to Troy and George...both cool car people. Met them on power tour back in 2000. :thumbsup:

Thats really cool, its interesting to see them get into salt flat racing as well as all their hot rod involvement. Thats some serious speed too!

Couldnt happen to a better Guy Been following Troys work and build path since his very first car and hes a super guy well deserved and just goes to show all that attention to detail does pay off on the show field and the Salts :thumbsup:

Cool deal.. time to scoop Hot Rod and put this in our news section.. which ships on Monday :D

Congrats to Troy and the gang for a very cool accomplishment.

Now I just need a high res of that shot.. lol

thanks for the pics GBod
everything he does is eye dropping! :hail:
i wish i had a spare 200-300k to give him to build a g machine :rockin:

Congrats to everyone involved!!

So someone is going over 200mph...was anything done to the car or is it mostly stock?!? :rofl: I know I'm an ass!!!! :lol:

AWR68 I think its running a slant 6 with a 3 on the tree shifter!!! lol :rofl:

Awesome Car - i was able to watch it from start to finish. I probably have a few hundred pics of his cars in various stages.

My truck should be there in Oct/Nov for Paint - can't wait.

Props to Rad Rides.. That is a huge statement what they accomplished. Whatever they embark on they always push the envelope and pull it off flawlessly. Whether it be a Street Rod, PT car, Drag Car , now a Salt Flat car. Just goes to show you just how good they are. :thumbsup:

the 57 nomad is not in the gallery any more? is it finished?

I'd bet all the Money $$$ in the world this car will not be left in a hotel parking lot in a trailer, for someone too steal......

Does this make the Blowfish the fastest musclecar in the world?

Good to see someone backing it up by taking the thing out and running it. Hopefully more builders and owners will follow suit.

I guess that would depend on your definition of "muscle car." And we know how sticky those subjects can be, ;) .

Fairly certain that the Nomad went back to it's owner. Maybe Kenny can answer this question

no it has not changed since it left troy's . mark warrick at soncy road auto ( the best painter in the country , when troys painter could not fix the 62 sedan thet flew mark in to fix it ) is who ownes it . he tried to sell it to me last week for 85 k.

I read in the latest hot rod that it was supposed to do 300 mph, and apparantly Frieburger just did 260 in a second gen camaro with an all stock GM 572! wow

EDIT:
I hate to take away from Rad Rides accomplishment but here is Freiburgers, kinda seems more impressive?

Congrats to them as well :thumbsup: .

Apples and oranges. Turbo 4 cylinder in Rad Ride's Blowfish. 572ci big block with 175hp worth of nitrous (for the 261mph run). Neither is more or less impressive IMO, definite props to both. :bow:
