On this episode of HOT ROD Unlimited, HOT ROD Editor In Chief David Freiburger explores the very first standing-mile race to be held on the runway at the Airpark in Wilmington, Ohio. This race was sanctioned by the East Coast Timing Association, which for years had been running on an old WWII runway at the airport in Maxton, North Carolina. When military needs caused the ECTA to lose access to Maxton at the end of the 2011 season, the city of Wilmington was happy to accept the racers. The very first meet was filled to capacity with 175 entries, and despite rain delays, 24 vehicles eclipsed 200 mph at the event. Watch as Freiburger makes his first passes at Wilmington, hunting for 200 mph in Wayne Jesel's former Busch-series NASCAR race car.

I just can't get enough of shows like this.

@HEKTIC458 8 лет назад

That Nascar motor sounds amazing

@morphman21 4 года назад

Indeed. Sounds like a few of those cars are running old Nascar engines

@MotorTrendWatch 12 лет назад

To those of you posting the belief that it should be easier for these cars to run 200 mph, you need to understand more about what's going on. The class rules at this event (and at Bonneville) are based on displacement, aspiration, and fuel. Many folks run small engines, naturally aspirated, on gasoline, making it far more difficult to run fast than with a turbocharged supercar. The car Freiburger drove in the video has 300ci, NA on gas, and it has run 210 mph. Try that yourself sometime.

Holy Cow, that Car at 3:47 sounds incredible !!!!

@morphman21 4 года назад

3:47

@cutlass8783 Год назад

It's because it's an old nascar engine

@jasonricketts2618 Год назад

it's no 347. it's 351 Cleveland based engine. Ernie Elliott. Dawsonville, GA

@WarHogKnight 11 лет назад

I have lived in Wilmington for 9 years and this is the coolest event that has been here in forever,

@MotorTrendWatch 12 лет назад

Thanks. We have great tripods, plus some of the best camera operators in the business!

@notmirelnam248 10 лет назад

And a 2.0 liter Mitsubishi cleans up. I don't know how that works, but I'm impressed nonetheless.

@TheSkinnybiker 9 лет назад

Small high winding engine with a turbo, I guess?

@lancecurley5188 6 лет назад

35 pounds of boost through an 80mm turbo will do it, those little 2L motors can go well over 1000hp

@flflash4717 6 лет назад

There are a multitude of classes at these events he won his class.

Welcome to youtube where everyone is an expert weapons analyst and a connoisseur of cars who is never wrong.

@Rahhhhhnman 12 лет назад

Another great video, thx David

@ArmyMedicRN 12 лет назад

That's because it's about the experience of researching, buying, building, testing, modifying, and racing these homemade machines. If it's insanely fast, then that's awesome.

@GizGaz52 12 лет назад

WOW! Thank You so much for this video! I really feel the need for speed!

@ncneeds 12 лет назад

Nice coverage of this great looking event! It looks like there is a lot of fun to be had here. I saw a lot of unique cars at this event.

@eeeen321 12 лет назад

Mike **Reichen's** car is the only one that really demands my attention and respect... that little 4cyl. 4door is INSANE. Congrats Mike!!!

@MotorTrendWatch 12 лет назад

@D00FY 12 лет назад

I like the yellow one with the Nascar engine. Sounds so nice.

@jeffcarras 12 лет назад

@TheMattDOOM 12 лет назад

Nice!

@beautyinmetal 12 лет назад

@gurlblu2001 12 лет назад

Nice job MIKE ! Out of curiosity, why did you dial back the boost? Im waiting for that this to run 250 !

@DrInsane76 12 лет назад

That sound @ 3:40! WOW! :-O

@ScottieDTV 12 лет назад

How Cool...Larry told me he got my channel on Hot Rod TV...he was not kidding...thanks guys..not trying to high jack your video but I do have three videos of the Mazda RX-7 on my channel..Thanks again!!!

@contrapezist 10 лет назад

Curious what happened with Moultrie GA, It's not even mentioned in the ECTA history on their site. A ragtag SCCA chapter still runs autocross there.

@specialkzim 12 лет назад

that place was awesome, I was there. there were a lot of really awesome cars running there

@mustangmach04 11 лет назад

my sentiments exactly. my jaw is still on the floor!!

@kellysankale82 7 лет назад

that evo just screams down the track!

@bakerbolton8476 6 лет назад

awesome

@NegativeNumbers427 12 лет назад

1:26 The golf cart accepts the challenge!

@supra1722 12 лет назад

yeah, i was also surprised none of these full blown race cars couldn't top numbers of full weight street cars here at the Texas Mile a few years back...

@darkhorsegarage9623 3 года назад

I was there and pushed my 250cc motorcycle to 123 mph. Great track and the best people on earth.

@TheNecromancer6666 8 лет назад

I love that corvair

@SvenDansk7 11 лет назад

LOL drag racing a Lloyd? Awesome.

@godzillasballs 12 лет назад

@JcCameron93 12 лет назад

@SILVERHORSE347 11 лет назад

I am still pissed I mi.ssed this event, Thanks alot Wayne

@robertghorne8607 4 года назад

I want to go there. Big time.👍🇺🇸

@pikachupowers 11 лет назад

Arent the brakes gonna get really hot if the spokes cover the whole brake? it does make it go a little faster because it reduces air drag but still..

@order9066 12 лет назад

The cars move out like the british at Dunkirk!

@soufang 11 лет назад

Some of the racers from Drag Week should participate in this.

@YourUncleScroatie 10 лет назад

NASCAR keeps the sheet metal high on the rear lower quarter panels to keep the cars under 200mph.lol

@zuestoots5176 5 лет назад

Yet almost every super speedway the cars break 200

@Chrys-T 10 лет назад

Love how Kris Henderson had a mango

@BelowAmbient 12 лет назад

GO MIKE!!

@SeniorEspo 12 лет назад

You forgot to mention it was '94!! haha, thats nuts!

@pjbadgersuw26 12 лет назад

By how extensively modified these cars look, I would expect 200 mph traps in the quarter let alone a full mile lol.

@user-lv3zu7hr5p 12 лет назад

For all that think they can run 200, Show up and bring your ride. If you get past the 200 mph wall we will all give you props. Anyone can run 200 at home. When you get your time slip its a whole new ball game for 99% of people.

@tylerschuster3540 8 лет назад

You should take the corvette race car there

@AZM55555 12 лет назад

237 MILES PER HOUR ?!!!! In a Mitsubishi EVO 2 ?!!! WOW !

@marshmountain 11 лет назад

It is a Chevrolet Corvair (with a Corvette LT1 engine, mounted "mid-engine)...

@pjbadgersuw26 12 лет назад

You should check out the ugr lambos and tt ford GT's which do 250+ and are full weight, stock looking street cars that can be daily driven.

@ToTheFuz 12 лет назад

Sweet

@XXXCompAssesXXX 12 лет назад

I saw an RX7! That's my ride right there. I hate how they ruined it for the Flats!

@entrepreneur_journey7 12 лет назад

LMFAO at the STUPID CARS LOL

@supra1722 12 лет назад

yeah lol, the Texas mile is probably one of the most competitive ones though

@Steel86Curtain 12 лет назад

4:58 Ford Fusion :DDD

@kevjt 12 лет назад

You all would be suprised at how hard it is the get to 200 mph let alone over 200 in a full bodied car.

@Griesalpstyla 12 лет назад

The wheel from Camaro of which manufacturer are the accurate designation Please

@XC0688 5 лет назад

The Jesel car now resides at Dale Earnhardt Jr property

@TheCymbalProject 3 года назад

Every car should have moon discs

@xbfalcon351coupe 12 лет назад

what insanely fast car that goes over 200mph do you drive? Just curious...

@hitssquad 12 лет назад

Yes, but the intersections weren't controlled with lights.

@LegacyOfFear 11 лет назад

They don't really use the brakes after the speed runs. It's what the chutes are for. If they ever drive the cars (aside from taxi'ing too & from pits at events) they'd just change the wheels.

@netmatrix75 12 лет назад

At 1.32, what car is that?

@EMemRefugee 12 лет назад

What was the new track record?

@austinslone5294 11 лет назад

hey guys, take a look at my videos of our saturn!! we went 206 at the fall meet, and will be there this year in april to run the top speed challenge. we plan on DRIVING three cars (one being Kris Henderson's Jag) to the event and hopefully come home with a jacket! see y'all in April!

@ariell92 12 лет назад

wow, what an echo does it make in that place imagine an old F1 V10 in there or a LFA

@ofnir123 12 лет назад

Congrats. Want a cake?

@GrecoRoman123 12 лет назад

Re 7:45 237 mph in a street legal car within 1 mile?! Holy crap

@Puffalupagus360 12 лет назад

isn't a 572ci a Pontiac Big Chief?

@malthe12321 12 лет назад

How fast would a Veyron be on a mile like this? :)

@harleridr 12 лет назад

what do you drive?

@netmatrix75 11 лет назад

Ahh... thanks.

@Mothodus 12 лет назад

Dude, go to the Texas Mile, cars break into the 200's like nothing.

@phantomloita 12 лет назад

hey i've been there before it's NE of Cincinnati has a 10,000 feet runway 4/22

@BlueCollarExCalifornian 12 лет назад

Over 200 mph in a 2.0L? Wow. I wonder how many rpm's.

@Thundering24 12 лет назад

my non twin T non-z06 ran 180 even at the Texas mile, stock, so yeah, your description would easily hit 200

@xsuperstar95 12 лет назад

SWEET ! ohio is alot closer than bonneville for me

@64gravely 12 лет назад

I went 300 in the 1/4 on my john deere!

@plymouth426ful 12 лет назад

that makes two of us

@KeithTurk 12 лет назад

Nice work David.... I'm amazed at the keyboard experts on here.... I can honestly tell they've never actually done 200mph with anything let along a 4 cylinder... Mike's little Evo... just annihilated a ton of exceptionally well modified super cars.... so... that having been said... keep in mind these people have met a series of very stiff safety regulations as well... of course the cars have been modified... that's the point of testing them...
