DRAG WEEK RECORD BROKEN - LARRY LARSON RUNS A 6.95 AT 209.10 MPH
The 2010 Hot Rod Drag Week is over and it was the best ever! To end the week of competition, Larry Larson threw everything he had at breaking into the 6's on what turned out to be the final run of the night. Here is the first video to show that very run! There's an on board view and an awesome super slo-mo to get a great look at the fire breathing Chevy II that Larry wheeled to a Drag Week record of 6.95. We had two street driven cars run over 200 MPH in the quarter mile, Larry in his Chevy II and Jeff Lutz in his 57 Chevy and both cars survived the grueling 1000 mile drive as well!
200 MPH RIDE ALONG - Larry Larson DRAG WEEK 2010
Ever wonder what it's like to hit over 200 MPH in the quarter mile?
Thanks to the new HOT ROD Magazine ride-a-long program, you can now experience the excitement and pure violence of a 200 MPH run down the drag strip in a street legal car!
In this video we ride a long with Larry Larson in his twin turbo '66 Nova. He would end up winning the 2010 Drag Week and not only join the 200 MPH club but also be the first to break into the sixes on the last run of the last night of compettition - 6.95 E.T. at 209 MPH! The video of that record breaking run is also on the Hot Rod YouTube channel and under the video tab at HOTROD.COM.
Hot Rod Corvette Hack - The Long Version
This is the video version of the Corvette Hack story that appeared in the Nov. '10 issue of Hot Rod magazine. You'll see the Hot Rod staff shred an '85 Corvette, cutting off parts until it was nearly a bare frame. The point? To see how much the car's performance improved as it dropped weight (into the Dumpster).
200 MPH Ride Along - Jeff Lutz Drag Week 2010
Ever wonder what it's like to hit over 200 MPH in the quarter mile?
Thanks to the new HOT ROD Magazine ride-along program, you can now experience the excitement and pure violence of a 200+ MPH run down the drag strip in a street legal car!
In this video we ride along with Jeff Lutz in his wicked fast '57 Chevy with a Pat Musi twin turbo power plant. Jeff and his son, seen in this video guiding the Chevy into the staging beam, ran on the heels of Larry Larson for the entire 2010 Drag Week only to blow flames through the block and head on the last night of competition.
The 2012 Fastest Street Car in America! - HOT ROD Unlimited Episode 19
This episode of HOT ROD Unlimited screams with action from 200-mph street cars at one of the most grueling events in all of motorsports: HOT ROD Drag Week, presented by Gear Vendors. This is the most brutal test anywhere of real drag-racing, street-driven cars, as the competitors hit the road for 1,400 miles to race five times at four different drag strips in five days in a battle to post the lowest average elapsed time at the end of the week. The winner is crowned the HOT ROD Fastest Street Car in America. In this video, we'll follow the chase for that title in Drag Week's most outrageous class, called Unlimited. Imagine cars that run 7 seconds in the quarter mile, in excess of 200 mph, and then drive on public roads—in the rain, over potholes, whatever it takes—to make it to the next race day to do it again. Five times. Ever see a 2,800-horsepower car hauling its own trailer full of tools and parts? You will here. When you wonder how the staff of HOT ROD could ever make the statement that a Lamborghini Aventador "isn't $400,000 fast," this video will prove why with legit American street cars in a battle of speed and survival.
HOT ROD Unlimited appears every other Friday on the new Motor Trend channel. http://www.youtube.com/motortrend
