It's not often you see a second generation Plymouth Roadrunner going down the quarter mile, but to see two racing each other is quite a treat for the eyes! What makes this more unique is that two friends Steve McDonald and Jim Leach both from New Lennox, Illinois are the owner of these two brightly colored mopars. Pick your favorite as Steve's is a '71 that was an original 383 4 speed car but now has a 498ci/440 engine that he bracket races but still drives on the street while Jim's is a '72 powered by a 440 magnum that he describes as a fun street car. #musclecar #mopar #roadrunners

I have a white 71 w/ a 383 and a 4-speed. Always thought the front end was the coolest design. Nice RR’s !👍🏼

@edwardcase6594 Год назад

Could watch this all day 😊

@Racingpappy101 Год назад

Awesome pair of road runners.. I had the reverse of the same 2 cars back in early 80s. Mine was a orange 71 383 4 speed, And I gave my better half a Yellow 72 with the factory 400/727. Brought back good memories if mine. 👍👍👍

The beauty and music! (of the engine that is)

@auteurfiddler8706 Год назад

I had a similar 72 Road Runner and the hood mounted turn indicators were on the hood but a Satellite had fender mounted turn indicators.

Beautiful cars. I had a 73 and a 74, but in recent years I've started to like the 71s and 72s better. Good video. Thank you.

@cudathehawgjetfixer7520 Год назад

My first car was an 1971 383 4bbl Road Runner, Forrest Green & White, with an Air Grabber Hood with White Strobe Stripes on the rear pillar! Fun car got into slot of fun with it, sold it to buy an 1973 340 Barracuda, way back in 1982!

My 1st Mopar was a Red and Rust 72 Satellite, 400hp/4spd. I've had 4 of that body style all total, and I don't think anything Looks Better, just Slick as grease. Nice Beepers 👍👍💯

@thomassicard3733 Год назад

My first car was a '74 Roadrunner with a 318. Same hood as a 440 Magnum... Dudes would rev up next to me, I'd rev up with my 'thrush' mufflers, give 'em the thumbs-up, the light would change... They'd leave me in the dust, because I would never even accelerate!!! LMAO!!!!!

@akdoc2003 11 месяцев назад

I'll trade you that pedal assembly out of your yellow 71 for the one in my '72. It's an automatic that I'm converting to 4-speed and I could sure use that manual pedal assembly that you aren't using. Both cars are AMAZING!!!!

@stevemcdonald2722 9 месяцев назад

Some day I’ll restore it! Still have the numbers matching drivetrain tucked away!!

I had a 1970 Roadrunner with a 383 and 4 Speed with a Hurst Pistol Grip. Loved that car. Of course I had to fix the second gear syncros a couple of times. Top speed 80 at 5000 RPM. You could see the gas gauge actually moving. 😢😂

Always liked the second gen roadrunners for sum reason myself.

@rebeccajohnson1407 Год назад

nice when i was a kid i had a 71 R. R. it was a brown paint. put it was a 440 six pack 4 speed Dana 410 gears i put 915 heads on it crane cam headers it would stay with 340 darts ? But i would get them at the end most of the time

@RSTI191 29 дней назад

The sound.. Yowza..

@ludedude5228 12 дней назад

The 72 grill on the RR is so much cooler then the 71 , tail lights too . But those cheap bolt on marker lamps were certainly a cost cutting factor compared to the 71's tri style marker lamps " But both still the best looking birds of all the years "

A very long time ago I had A orange 71 Satellite,Somebody put A 383 and a 4 speed in it ,I got from my friend i traded stereo setup for it,I had it A while the traded it to another friend for A bunch Of model railroad stuff.Wis I still had it.

@RACEYOURRIDE 6 месяцев назад

Ouch yeah that sounds like a great car to have today

@dbmartin60 6 месяцев назад

It was about 81 or 82 I think,It was originally a small block automatic car.The boy was near perfect and the only thing the interior needed was work around where the put the 4 speed in.

@dbmartin60 6 месяцев назад

That should read the body was near pperfect.,I hate auto correct.

Always loved GTX's! Back in the day friend had a blue one too with a white interior. 440 with a 4 speed car was a beast. 👍

@martinliehs2513 8 месяцев назад

The red one is gorgeous, but the 1/4 mile times are not very consistent. The yellow one is clearly set up for the drag strip, and not as clean as the red one. The two quarter mile runs shown are nearly identical, however.

@RACEYOURRIDE 8 месяцев назад

First time out for the red one and yeah the yellow one is set up to drag race.

@davidwainwright8362 12 дней назад

For the Orange 72 you can't put drag radials in the water and not spin'm good enough getting smoke they'll never hook...did have the 1 good 12.50 pass thou

Yeah it was his first time at the dragstrip. Practice Practice Practice right 👍

@John-zd4le Год назад

Could of seen more of the cars if they'd of left them on the trailer.Nobody has enough balls for an original four speed!?

@stevemcdonald2722 Год назад

If you’re referring to the yellow one I drove and bracket raced it for several years with the original 3 spd manual then a 4 spd but it was killing parts! I did very well racing it 3 rearends 2 driveshafts and the windshield started to separate I decided to go with the automatic! Saving a numbers matching car I’ve owned for over 30 years!
