hey guys
heres a video i just made of my dads race car-
heres the history--

It's been around for about 20 years-he built it his self when he was about 19.It's come a long way since then.He bracket races it all around south Georgia.I started racing it when i was 14 (im 17 now) but i dont race it too much anymore. But anyways, in the video, we try the new motor out since the last one got destroyed this past Sunday at the track. It was about time for it to go, 8000 rpm burnouts and shifting at 7400 and it held up for about 2 years, thats not bad. the new motor is a chevy-383 stroker. It consists of-eagle rods and crank, brodix heads(not sure of the exact size), flat top pistons, large cam, 650 holley carb(changed to a new 750 today, we found out that a dirt dobber was clogging up one of the barrels almost completely- it was like this during the video, we just noticed it today.) well, thats all the main stuff

so here ya go enjoy :p (IF SOMEONE COULD HOST THIS VID, I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT!) :p
