the quality is a bit poor, but since theres a few vega guys out there i figured i'd show it, plus its just good entertainment.....:D
its my buddys vega wagon, just a basic 355 with a about a 200 (i believe) horse shot , its a real basic combo but runs well into the 9's, and gets plenty wicked doing it occasionally.

very little damage, just a flat header, and he did't touch the wall.

WOW! That was wild ride for sure!!! :thumbsup:

YIKES!!! man that thing leaves hard. Time for some wheelie bars, huh? Glad to hear he didn't hurt it too bad. Is it a ladder bar or 4-link car?

yeah, its wicked. it started out as just a beater to go race, he's got a couple other nice cars, but it turned out to be so much fun he just went with it. he loves it, especially the easy maintenance DP90 paintjob ;) .
the thing is actually extremely basic, i think its kind of an old school ladder bar setup if i recall, definately nothing much.
i have not talked to him in a month or so, but after that little "mishap" he was planning on doing a few suspension upgrades. he was also talking about a new mill, thinking maybe a procharger, the thing will be nuts. the 355 was literally thrown together, just to go race, but it worked so well he went a season or two with it.. those things just seem to work.
i cant believe he just kept on it like he did, his brother drives like that, but he's slightly more conservative (i thought).
his brother has a 67 chevelle he's had for 25+ years, its absolutely notorious for wicked crossed up passes. back when we had......er... "unsanctioned" races, i saw him yank the tires on blacktop, and i mean 8"-10", amazing to see. but, it caught up to him about 5 years ago, he buried it in the wall at a track in canada, luck finally ran out i guess. good news is the car lives on, with a slightly newer front end.
glad you enjoyed the vid as much as i did.
