This is a video of my old Red Oval at Oran Park back in the early 90's I think, before track side commentators knew Bugs could go quick.
I was running an 1835 Engle 140 cam about 10.5 to 1 comp and a stock "L" Bug gearbox with street tyres.

Cool video David.

The commentator was a bit of a tosser,
but got his "just deserts".

Couple of familiar faces there at the end.

Great collection of vids Dave.

The Oran Park video is great. Was that with the turbo and the blow-through weber?

Awseome save in the Huntley video. I even crapped myself watching it.
