Default Big Red Video From 1989

Hey Guys...

Remember the video that got us all into this PT stuff?...It was a vid on the Silver State Challenge from 1989 (I think) that showed the Big Red Camaro just cleaning the clocks of the other cars...

I remember a hearing the person narrating say something like, "One listen to the sound of Big Reds motor and everyone knew they would be competing for SECOND place"...He he he...

I have searched around and cannot find a copy of this video...Any leads?...Anybody got one for sale?...Is it on DVD yet?...I gotta ad it to my collection...

Thanks for any leads...

And THANK YOU BIG RED for changing the whole way we build cars!!!!

Rick

Those are awesome Jerry, thanks for posting.
I can't wait to look them up on a bigger screen than my phone, especially the second one.

That car does have a awesome sound. I remember seeing it in one of the Fast and Furious movies.

You're welcome. I've been lucky to see it in person a few times back when it was first built, It was parked but it was Big Red LOL

I have the second video on VHS in storage right now, I remember buying it at Super Shops as a kid. It has been forever since I have watched the video. I didn't realize that SW was featured so prominently in it.

That car kicks a$$ now, yet alone 23 years ago in 1989 with an all aluminum, 540 BBC. I also noticed it had 3-piece wheels that were staggered and a nice, low stance. A true case of the meaning of something being "ahead of its time."
