scannon Posted June 27, 2009 Author Share Posted June 27, 2009 I was waiting for the big burnout, but it never happened That was the first drive of the car. A wise man would not be doing a burnout first time out, especially in a car like that. Did you notice the ambulance was following him all the way through the driving part of the video? He left it behind a couple of times when he accelerated but it was always there. What surprised me was the car didn't appear to rock when he would blip the throttle. I thought sure it would all but flip over on its side with that much torque in that light of a car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mondo Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Funny that he wears a helmet but there's nothing but a cheap seat, sealt belt & flimsy sheet metal around him... Colin Chapman would be proud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHKflyer52 Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 That makes Franklin7 look weak......just joshing.....wounder how fast it will go and how far on the fuel it can cary in that tank.....I think that engine burn about 8 gph when in an airplane at cruse at altitude and about 16 gph on the ground during takeoff.

Ian7 Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Shame that anything over a flight idle throttle setting is probably suicidal... imagine the sound if he could run down the road with decent revs :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
