2000hp 266mph BIG RED 1969 Camaro. The Greatest Pro Touring Car Ever Built?
Рет қаралды 1,581,704
5 жыл бұрынThis may very well be one of the most legendary car builds of all time. That's a big claim... but backing it up is 2000 horsepower, a base Veyron-crushing top speed of 266mph, countless race wins over the past few decades, and a rebirth from a fire that could have ended it completely. Hold onto your keyboards, this is a story for the times.

I have the mag with it on the cover! And this car is the one I blame for my love affair with first gen Camaros. I restored a 67, 68 and 69 and unfortunately sold them all. Coming up on my 69th bday and I’m buying one last 69 Camaro to celebrate and unlike the others it’s already pretty well complete, just needs one additional gauge and a roll cage with seats and harnesses and possible a nos setup to low 9’s and some road racing. Yahoo!!!!

I do all the electrical systems on Big Red! The sheer number of different combinations we run was quiet a challenge. On the road race set up we run a Holley Dominator EFI with an MSD Grid ignition and Racepak for data logging the stuff we don't get on the Holley box ( EGT'S and O2's for each cylinder). When we land speed race and don't have to fit in to the classic class we run the Holley Dominator EFI with Holley coil near plug set up and still use the Racepak for data. In the set up you see in the video the motor is all mechanical but we still use the Holley Dominator and Racepak for data logging.

Dude it's not a "60's muscle car." It's a lot more like a MUCH higher horsepower stock car or trans am car with a '69 Camaro body on top. Yes there are many more challenges getting that shape to go that fast as opposed to say an 80's or 90's F-body. Still an AMAZING car and so cool to see it still running strong after all these years.

This car is one of my earliest memories in the 90's, my dad had stacks of hotrod magazines and Big Red was always making headlines.

I read about this car in the 80s. It was majorly impressive back then that it averaged 200mph in a road race, and it’s still impressive now. Remembering that article just now, led me to search for a video on it over 30 years later.

Didnt know about the fire, hopefully she is on the road as long as gas is available. Loved that car since reading about it in high school and watching it back in the early KZfaq days 😉

It runs on alcohol so as long as corn exists it's good to go

I wouldn’t be super surprised to see that guys son running Big Red in an all electric version at some point to start beating some electric car records.

I remember when they first raced it against the Ferrari s. The Ferrari boys laughed at it. I think the owners son ( the one that was in this video ) was only 19 when he drove it.

It's true. The Ferrari Boys laughed, until they cried.

@@josholiver3539 - Ferrari has done a lot of crying since 1966, when Ford ended their relevance in all forms of racing, except F1. You'd think they'd know better than to laugh at Americans by now.

Boys I did this Nevada race in 2018 and I was doing between 120mph and 150mph in a built 1998 SS with a LS1 and a 6spd. And this Camaro is pure bad ass. It’s takes balls to go 200+ mph in the silver state classic. It’s just a 2 lane Hwy and if you lose it your into canyon walls or big ass boulders on the side of the road.

First, my jaw just about hit the floor when they were talking about the history, then my stomach dropped when I saw the car on fire. Amazing just four months after the fire to get the car in the condition that it is now. Wow. Thank you for showing this.

Honestly guys, out of all the cars you have showed. This one car is the most iconic, coolest car yet. In my book it will be hard to ever beat this car. Big Red changed the car world for ever. They made pro touring cool
