Default Cool Sprint Car Pic (part one)

This is a picture of the legendary SCRA Sprint Car driver Richard Griffin pulling both front wheels while exiting turn two, sideways, during qualifying. It was taken at Ventura Raceway this past Saturday. This car uses an all aluminum 410 engine that develops over 900 horsepower.

Take care,
-Chris

That's a pretty motor. Wouldn't mind having one of those sitting around. Bet that's an expensive motor too!

No. We can't afford to run with the 410 boys. We run a cast iron block 360 class. This will take you to a page on my website with some pictures of our engine and car as we built them this winter.
