Default Big Red on the salt

I’m not taking a ton of pictures but thought I’d share this one and give a bit of an update. They broke the Hot Rod Specials record today and set the bar at 257.xxxmph for the class. After losing a motor at the magnum mile and again at Pikes Peak they’ve got a new plan...smaller motors! The motor today measured at 565ci and they figure they’re down in power from the 590+ci, they’re guessing right at 1750hp. He’s loving the usable horsepower and excited for the week ahead, one record already broke and hoping for north of 270mph by weeks end.

If you ever get a chance to see the car, go over and introduce yourself, the entire crew are all really great and love to talk about any form of racing.
