BIG Cubic Inches

[Keith Tedford]

So you think 496 and 572 CID are big. EACH cylinder on this beast is about the same displacement as the 427 in the old Chevelle that I had.

Amazing car, I watched the beast being fired up for the first time in another video. Just unreal.

The Goodwood Festival is a meet that I really would like to attend. Held on the "driveway" of the Lord March Estate they race cars up the hay bail line drive absolutely flat out. The festival is famous for putting together some really interesting themes of cars. One year they had top fuel dragsters running the course. The Little Red Wagon was there one year wheel standing all the way up the course and setting the hay bails on fire with the sparks. The crowd went nuts.

The road racing sports cars and F1 machinery really put on a show. Blindingly fast.

One day.

Wow what a brute...I'll bet the scariest part of driving that beast would be stopping it from speed....(lol or would it be trying to see and breathe?)

Good find Keith ... and yes Murray wouldn't that be a trip......

Murray, I too saw that first start up of the engine on Youtube last year, then got this from a friend this morning. Pretty wild sounding outfit even today. Can you imagine the attention it got back then. Really great video.

Unbelievable car for it's day!! Just goes to show you there's no replacement for displacement!! Love the sound and flames from the stacks and good to see it on a track again!
