Forever. They don’t print that quick. I’m guessing the cam gear is a couple of hours. ( We have one at work. All the boss has made is silly little trinkets.)

Guess I wasn’t the only one to think of this.
Yes. As of 3 years ago. A bad accident with a rally class car where the nav. was almost ejected. (Bad cage design/ seat mount.) But PPIHC decided to limit the number of people at risk by just making all classes driver only.
A guy I know bought the special tools that a Porsche dealership had to buy to be a service center on the Carrera GT. I seem to remember the cost to the dealer was like $140 —THOUSAND!
Don’t get me wrong-I’m not knocking the accomplishments or skills of either driver. Its a matter of what you are trained to be best at. In general, rally skills are a lot closer to what you want for hillclimbing than road racing. Road racers are trained to be “slow in fast out”-smooth-steady over a long run.…
Also one is a rally driver used to being able to take every corner-known or unknown-at a rapid pace. The other is a closed course racer used to learning a few corners and being able to honing them to get them exactly right.
Awesome car-very talented driver. But you can tell hes driving line of sight. 150 turns is a lot to learn in a short time.
You’re right. That thing has “Who framed Roger Rabbit” all over it.
These were better plow trucks than play 4wd’s. The v-8 weighed 750 lbs!. As I read somewheres “ The weight on a big block with the torque of a 6 cylinder.”
The problem is how many overlapping layers of shit you have to remove to get to the wires....
I got to ride in one The best description I could give is—go on Craigslist. Find the best riding mower you can buy for $100. Get it running-dump a quart of oil in the gas tank. (even though its a 4 stroke) For the smoke effect.
A 454 FORD engine with Turbo 400 tranny? I suppose you could stroke a 351 out that far—and adapt a Chevy tranny to it....
I did my share of keeping the number of suitable donor vehicles low-helping to increase the value of the (fewer) survivors. But I had far more fun in them that whoever buys this will.
BINGO!!! It was Qually! Yes-the cam car had momentum-but thats doesn’t mean you own the line. He was racing like it was the last lap.
Puerto rican nuns do spread legs.
If only someone (DUSTY) could venture a mere 1 1/2 hours north, you could have coverage of an awesome hillclimb in Vt.
I can almost see the logic of white. When you look at the car, you are purely looking at the shape-and just the shape. Color isn’t a distraction or enhancement.
Or the 70's. Like spending more on lawyers + lobbyists to fight installing cat. converters—than it would have to just put them on the cars for free.
I had one. It was my fathers-and from what I remember, it served him well.* But the floor eventually rotted out-separating from the body. So a buddy + I took it-did a crappy patch job (we were probably 14 or 15) and used it as a field car.
Oops-my mistake. Didn’t know he had a brother racing.
