    Ya know what David Freiburger? The ULTIMATE Roadkill episode for the F-Bomb would be to road trip it all the way to Loring Maine for the standing mile meet. A hair's breadth away from honest to goodness coast to coast. The longest Roadkill road trip ever in the fastest most powerful Roadkill car ever. Don't waste time thinking about it. Just do it.

    I remember reading the Hot Rod article about this build a long time ago, and when I saw recognized it in Fast and Furious 4 it put a huge smile on my face. It's cool to see that it's still in your possession, even if you don't get to drive it a lot.

      I mean I wouldn't turn down being paid more to do less hard work either... But yeah the old episodes are the best. They suffer so much in the cold and laying on parking lots it's great. Muscle truck + minibikes is my favorite episode they just have so much fun the whole time.

    I've been to the Louvre in France and seen the Mona Lisa in person, which is inarguably considered a masterpiece. I gotta tell you, the moment Freiberger opened up the hood to this car and gave us a peek inside, THAT ENGINE, is a masterpiece. Nelson Supercars did an incredible job making an engine that functions as good as it looks, holy crap.

      I remember reading about this many, many years ago, around the same time as a sleeper nova. Back then I had a faint interest in muscle cars but knew of nelson racing. Fast forward many years later, and I can’t make it through a roadkill or roadkill garage episode without pausing to wrench in the garage. I’ve learned so much, but this car really sparked my interest in wrenching (but I was just a kid when freiburger was at 4WOR)

    BMR makes some excellent IR suspension, some kits requiring no welding at all. You may have to swap over to a 3rd member rear end with a swing axle CV differential, but you can also just swap over to coil overs, as leaf springs are old news. I know 2nd gens used leaf springs until the 3rd gen came out, but that was one of the reasons 3rd gens could outhandle Mustangs on the circuit. This being a streetable drag car, having adjustables will make a big difference on the track, and even handle on the streets better too, lot more control of the horsepower.

    I know this video is old, but "RPM" has available, and I can't say if they can get the same results with this car, but Garrett of the famous youtube channel: "Cleetus McFarland" ( made famous for being the very 1st stick shift GM car, a Corvette with all body panels removed known as "Leroy" to run a 7 second pass in the 1/4 mile ) bought a DIFFERENT C6 Corvette used at auction, for another project, threw a little junkyard 4.8 LS truck motor in it, PLUS BETTER PISTONS & RODS, AND PORTED HEADS, and a single turbo, wherein the company "RPM" built perhaps the very best 2 speed Power Glide being made today that comes complete with the rear end, their recommended gearing for that car, and torque tube, along with the entire shift kit for around $15,000. And on their very first try, they ran a 9:01, and that was on low boost ( motor can't handle full boost ). They will be running 8's here in no time. They decided to go ahead and have a roll cage made before making more runs. I don't know what "RPM" is doing to build their entire Power Glide w/rear end kit.......but they shaved off over a second off of their previous pass, from their previous transmission in the 1/4 mile on the very first try. And I just now remembered, they made that 9.01 pass as 2 or 3 of the plug wires MELTED during the run, causing the engine to drop at least 1 cylinder at the big end of the track, yet it STILL ran that extremely low 9........and during 3 different passes that day ( just recently ), they KEPT melting plug wires, the motor would drop a cylinder or 2, and they gave up for the day, until they do something different with routing & protecting the plug wires. And as I just mentioned, we are all now waiting on the roll cage to be fabbed & installed. KEEP YOUR EYE ON THEIR CHANNEL, BECAUSE THAT NEW POWER GLIDE TRANSMISSION BY "RPM" AS A COMPLETE SET-UP WITH REAR-END, BUMP-STOP, SHIFT KIT, THE WHOLE 9 YARDS..........WILL SEND THAT C6 WITH LITTLE TRUCK MOTOR & SINGLE TURBO DOWN THE 1/4 MILE IN 8 SECONDS..........YOU MARK MY WORD. Their complete Power Glide kit with rear-end alone made a world of difference in that car.
