Video: 4 engine "Problem Child"




Gary said this about the run:


I have removed two of the engines because I blew up the high gear for the rear engines last night. Just shake down runs only hitting 70-75 mph.

Gary has some trouble getting all the engines warmed up, but once they all get going, this thing screams.

Gary O's 4 engine "Problem Child"









Gary had this to say about his car:

I have been working on a four engine car for about 9 months now, initially bent on blowing Ziggy's record out of the water and bring it back to the USA. Unfortunately, he's such a nice guy that I'll feel bad when I do eventually set a new one, but only for a minute or two.

The car is based on a couple Associated NTC3's. Some early photos show the NTC3 parts that are pretty much hidden in the finished car...

It's powered by four .21 Picco P9 engines which have proven to be very problematic, living up to it's name....
