I was expecting a Vauxhall Nova, ooops !!!

 

[Mr Burns]

I'm assuming it's road legal, which is impressive!

 

[MaLicE]

seeing as it says road legal and street legal several times on the page and the video... im guessing yes it is lol!

however can guarantee in the uk that would be alot slower due to the fact every drag strip in america runs downhill lol!

 

[Kneel]

Christ that looks like fun...

 

[Englebert]

Cool vid! Whats the 'box all about then?

 

[Gaz.]

There's not much in the US that isn't Street Legal though!

 

[MaLicE]

Cool vid! Whats the 'box all about then?

just a drag box, each lever controls each gear, will be super tough straight cut no need for clutch etc just pull one and it will line the next up so you can just drop it in...

 

[Brasseye]

yea thats some gearbox and what a noise !!!!

amazing traction

 

[Ian_182]

Lenco CS1 shifter

Lenco transmissions are very common in the US for high power strip cars - can handle up to 3000 bhp. The 427 Nova normally uses the TH400 ( Turbo hydramatic ) transmisson.
