Umm.....tractor engines!?!

 

Thats awesome!!

Nice looking car too!

 

Yea, I went to their website but they don't seem to want to reveal anything about the mechanical/technical. Didn't see one shot of the engines and drivetrain, just lots of people and distant action shots. Oh well.......

 

Very cool

edit: they've got more horsepower in reserve than I have at the rear wheels!

 

Glad to see the event was able to run again this year. I believe last year was cancelled due to the water not drying off. That place is under water every spring, and when it drys off, it leaves a hard compacted surface. Anyone that can fit it into their plans owes it to themself to attend this event at least once. It is very low-key, cost about $5 to spectate, and the people and their cars are amazing. I would bet some of the crews have at least one person that is retired from the Lockheed Skunkworks.
