How the F-Bomb Camaro Does Wheelies On Dirt!

[@Eastbayrob]

I totally appreciate your honesty “I want to run in the 8’s that’s expensive, please buy my t-shirt” lol

[@southjerseysound7340]

Exactly, so many beat around the bush and sell crap t-shirts with their channels etc that you'll never wear. It's a step above begging on the street corner. Whereas he's straight up and its got some proper artwork of a wicked car. It beats almost all of the swag I've seen people sell.

[@Leofred2000]

But is it a bit too little and too late since so many yt kids are running 8's and 7's on junkyard hondas and wrecked vettes for a fraction of the cost

[@southjerseysound7340]

@@Leofred2000 you have no clue as to how much Leroy would actually cost. Then there's a big difference between a street car running those numbers vs a race car.

[@Leofred2000]

Think F-Bomb has cost quite a bit more than Leroy which is also street legal

@@southjerseysound7340 my 1st Gen turbo LS s10 was $3700 including chassis and is street legal and has AC. I ran 8.90s in the 1/4. Making about 790hp and around 2590 A buddy of mine has a 5.3 turbo 87 Mustang gt he's got about $2900 in it and it runs 8.70s

Cleetus McFarland just ran 7.82 in a Corvette chassis and brick aerodynamics with about 1200 hp in a manual transmission. The fbomb weighs more but still has better aero and more power potential numbers so lets see high 7s with that car. Skip the 8s entirely and go straight for 7s lol

[@TheDavidFreiburger]

Jared Anthony It’ll never happen. 4,100 pounds.

[@jaredanthony8070]

@@TheDavidFreiburger hey worth a shot lol I wonder how much power it would take to achieve that at 4100 pounds instead of roughly 2800 with worse aero than a brick

[@jdmcommute]

Jared Anthony Weight is worse than aero unfortunately. Especially when getting the correct weight balance according to the suspension setup and with all the cage and things that add weight. Leroy is also an IRS suspension. Much easier to get the traction right according to track.

[@troypowders4312]

Also had two blown head gaskets in Leroy when he ran that time.. oh and no coolant

[@MattLundquistVW]

Cleetus also had Leroy set on kill, so not 1200 hp either. 1200 was his safe hi boost set up, when he went the 7's he was way above that. What it really show is how getting the a car set up right, will make impressive # compared to other cars with more power.

Dave talk the powers at be into having the F- bomb on HOT ROD GARAGE. They could get some tire sponsorship to let you use some real slicks and you could run it at the track on work time. Seems like it would be a win win. They can also spin the episode off as a "how to set up a car for the drag strip". As most episodes are about building horsepower or putting on suspension for road course. But Hot Rod Garage has not really covered setting up a car with real horsepower to run down the drag strip. Hope you sell a lot of shirts and good luck I'm getting the car into the eights.
