It's apparent it's a class act and so is everyone involved. Please answer me this: Why not a mechanical linkage clutch? Because heat, maybe? Or motor setback in chassis? One more thing, PLEASE open your show with a duet of Joan Jett and Billy Idol. They rock like you guys!
Sean,
Thanks for your comments about the show. swapping out the mechanical linkage for the hydraulic unit was done for a few reasons. One of the top ones is the reduced pressure required to operate the clutch. It allows me to focus more on everything else important while in a longer race, instead of overworking my clutch leg when the clutch gets used a lot.
Thanks for the idea on the music. We're always open to suggestions.

RJ

JR,

The setup for the Elephant (supercharged setup), uses a radiator mounted in the trunk. I post a lot of detail shots of items like this on my Instagram feed @thebigredcamaro Are you on Instargram?

RJ,

I saw a video on your facebook page that Big Red passed the 250 mph goal in the 1.5 mile event. To top it off, the engine was detuned to 1600 hp from 1900 hp.

Congrats and keep smashing records with Big Red.
