Title: Quickest rear engine aircooled door car in world from brazil, 195mph Post by: richie on September 14, 2015, 12:58:20 pm Pety Fuser from brazil in his New beetle style rear engine door car ran 7.66@195mph yesterday, and a 7.75@150ish mph getting out of it early, with another 7 second at 195mph pass as well, the bar has been truly raised :o
Seems a more aerodynamic shape with a sequential gearbox is the way to go as well :) https://www.facebook.com/edu528/videos/10206454644038274/ Title: Re: Quickest rear engine aircooled door car in world from brazil, 195mph Post by: BeetleBug on September 14, 2015, 13:31:56 pm Detailed pictures of the fastest car in the world can be seen here: http://www.dragsterbrasil.com/bau/projetos/131028newbeetlepetyfuser/fotospages/fotopg1.htm

This car just shows what Laufer's or the Baron's gang could do if they didn't have the weight and trans restrictions Title: Re: Quickest rear engine aircooled door car in world from brazil, 195mph Post by: NoBars on September 14, 2015, 14:42:11 pm What transmission is that?

Anthony, yes a 5 speed, its a S5D I think http://moira.meccahosting.com/~a0008423/s5d_sequential.htm cheers Richie Title: Re: Quickest rear engine aircooled door car in world from brazil, 195mph Post by: WhiteTrash on September 14, 2015, 21:11:31 pm That's some serious going from a serious race car :o :o
Maybe you should put the hood up ;) Title: Re: Quickest rear engine aircooled door car in world from brazil, 195mph Post by: gbaker770 on September 15, 2015, 00:16:26 am Wicked!
I wonder how much he is spraying that thing too? Amazing numbers, that looks like it could be the very first 200 mph aircooled doorslammer. Title: Re: Quickest rear engine aircooled door car in world from brazil, 195mph Post by: BeetleBug on September 15, 2015, 10:58:41 am It is really interesting to compare his time-slip to other fast vw`s out there. He is picking up 43.75mph from 1/8 to 1/4 mile and that is a lot! 5.054 with a 1.219 60ft and 152 mph half way is also amazing.

It is really picking up speed from the 60ft toward the 1/8" and he manage 4.962 @ 156mph half way.

Just takes time & money, oh and a little hard work ;) and if that doesn't wok can always take the kit of the 67 and throw it on ;D cheers Richie |
