      I am older now...... built my first performance '65 bug in 1974, parts were just coming out, cyclone purple people eater exhaust and holley bugspray carb. Built another 65 sedan in the early 90's, 1776, thick wall cylinders and delorto carbs, fiberglass tilt front end. Honestly, in the U.S. they were faster than these, on average. The bugorama's in Sacramento had huge amounts of bugs running in the mid 11's with full bodies and all. The bug during the early 90's was by far the cheapest way to run 11's in the 1/4 mile.

    Santa pod must have a shirt stopping distance to the end if you need a Parachute at 130mph my car ran 170 in the 1/4 and I didn't need a chute

    • @VeeDubRacing
      @VeeDubRacing  6 лет назад

      It is recommended that there is a secondary braking system for all vehicles travelling faster than 150mph, this can be a parachute or mechanical braking system in addition to a hydraulic system. Some cars like to test them to see if they are working, even deploying them at lower speeds. Run off is long enough. The fastest run down Santa Pod was over 330mph !!
