Project Introduction and Personal Motivation

so my dad was a sponsor on this car back in the ' 60s supercharged Viper engines with prochargers on and they'll be about 2500 horsepower per engine why do we do that I don't know you know I wish my younger son would have told his brother hey I don't like how you're driving let me out of the car would you know would have changed things we're here with former top fuel racer Doug Herbert his personal garage and he's got some pretty cool projects in there what do you got going on these days you know unfortunately not doing much Top Fuel racing these days so uh been working on a project to go to the Bonville Salt Flats and set the worldland feed records pretend we didn't just walk in here 30 seconds ago and then come back out here to record this intro Doug Herbert's dad Chad Herbert was actually kind of like one of the founding fathers of hot riding back in early days of Southern California he's credited with bringing the roller cam to the aftermarket industry the first car that legendary engine Boer Ed pink we did a video with him he talked about going to Bonville for the first time with a borrowed engine that engine was from Chad Herbert I had no idea until we had talked to Doug about this after the fact it's pretty cool very small world so you know everybody's got to have a Viper in the garage especially when they have a race car that has Viper engine in it yes we got the Viber we got an old Cadillac just cuz I I don't know I just thought it was fun they're cool yeah it's just neat it's fun that old Cadillac driving down the road or at a stop line it doesn't matter they're you know an old person a young person uh they're white or black or or Spanish or whatever everybody's like cool car you know it just kind of it just makes people smile I think old cars in general so yeah it's it's prettyy fun and we got an old Top Fuel car it's a 1964 uh Top Fuel dragster that was ran you know back back in the day the wind spoiler so it's kind of a neat old car uh but it starts up and cackles and makes you know makes flames and all that pretty cool and then we got our what we're calling the Beast here the the uh V car the pl on going setting the worldland speed record with this thing supercharged Viper engines with prochargers on and there'll be about 2500 car per engine so two dual engines 5,000 horsepower it's a four-wheel drive car it'll weigh probably around 7,000 lbs uh once it's completed really low coefficient of drag and uh you know should be engineering says…
