You have to set the advance on the magneto just right. My old Harley was mag fired only and she'd fire on a good follow through kick even when cold. Had to keep the throttle up for a bit, but she would never fail me.
Awesome, but that little rig in front of the "beast" has got to be one of the purest examples of a motor vehicle ive ever seen. V8 engine bolted to bare chassis with four wheels. Seemingngly not a single superflouous item on it. Perfect!
Next year there is going to be a jet powered car, it has 8 wheels and the tyres have suction to ground in each. Also it's driver less, it will smash all the records, wonder if mcmurtry will complain about rule breaking or not taking part with en spirit of rules, like they do,
Nice to see such an exotic range of vehicles.. but all the electric vehicles, however quick they appear, they sound like shit.. sorry but, ya just can't beat the sound of an v10 f1 racing vehicle
