73 Camaro "F-bomb" 1500 Horsepower --- PART 1
FROM NRE: A 1973 Camaro which we've caged, minitubbed, completely stripped to bare metal and powder coated the entire car. The motor is a 406 twin turbo making 1540 hp and 1527 lbs of torque.
We are going to prove to everyone you can "have your cake and eat it to."
We are going to drive the car 300 miles a day, stopping at a race track everyday, for 5 days. 1500 miles and 5 race days in 5 days, with no support vehicle. Sounds pretty crazy? Did we mention we are planning on running in 8 second quarter miles?
Our goal is to illustrate that you can own a car that smooth running, mellow-idling, easy-driving, pump-gas cruiser - and still make 1500hp, 8 second passes.
We call it the "F-bomb" becuase when it arrived at NRE, it looked like a Scud hit it.

Freiburger looked so much older back then. He looks 10 years younger now that he's lost some weight and got rid of the mullet.

It's not his weight. Extra weight actually takes a few years OFF you. What it is is his ridiculous hair. As you lose your hair, you need to cut it shorter and shorter. A guy with not a lot of hair, grown long, looks (strangely) like he doesn't have much hair. BUT, if you start to cut it shorter and shorter as you lose it, you still look like you have plenty of hair. Once you get down to a #1 cut, you're essentially bald, but no one ever thought you were going bald.

someusername121 Lol just because it was uploaded to youtube 8 years ago doesn't mean this was filmed 8 years ago. This was most likely filmed in the 90's from how everything looks. I guess if I look up a movie from the 50's on youtube that it was filmed when they uploaded that as well by your logic?
wow Friburger used to be kind of fluffy, and mullet

I know! Freiburger looks so much better now.
"...when we get THIS done, I'm gonna drive it every single day." hehe...he was so very optimistic :)
Thirty cars and none of 'em run. Fuck yeah.
"800 dollar train wreck"?? That car as a barn find roller would cost a lot more than that today.
Wow back then he was Fried Burger!

Dave...your hair is killing me......
I finally got me a 2nd gen camaro ! Now that I got the body i have disassemble it and search and saved every penny I could get and put it my penny bank ! I got up extra early today to open and count what I have saved up the last two years ! I finally got all my savings figured up I have 52 cents ! 52 cents dividend by 2 years is 26 cents so 2 more years I should have $1.04 and if I live to be 60 Years old should have $21.60 ! Well I guess I can dream and maybe be able to buy a cold beer on my 60th birthday with the $21.60 and roll outside and look at my camaro drink my beer and dream ! Piss on it where is my pistol !
Holy Cow! Freiburger with is that hair? Call Finnegan fast.
Not sure how old David is, but he aged well. I think he looks better now than when this video was done.

hero stuff!! i maintain, Baskerville is smilin down at all this. you get 2 thumbs up dave:)
1500hp daily driver?...sick
1/2 of the great duo in the show roadkill
freiburger went on a diet, hes skinnier now

Hennessey Venom GT is basically an Exige with a twin turbo viper V10.
dayum,freiburger had hair lol
why do i get thumbs down, im trying to say that no stock block american v8 is capable of 8000hp, a top fueler is a forged aftermarket motor.

it was never used in the movie, because if you keep up with hot rod magazine you would know they wrecked the real one, but it never said anything about it being fixed, it probably is by now though...
Time when Freiburger had hair, a lot !
Love the 70 think it might look good in the ford red/orange color that they offer
Dave looks hilarious! 😂
Omg David from roadkill and hotrod magazine!^^
‘Big Burger’?!! Dammm
1527 lbs of torque damn :O
Freiberger the trend setter. :)
pretty cool launch
Dave and Tom look so young, when was this? and Dave has FLOW man!

$800 train wreck? Looks like a rust free car to me. I guess most people haven't seen a car from Ontario up here in Canada.
Cool, great vid.
that spot of rust is killing me
@reefchief8 yeah but the bugatti lol also has quad turbos attached to a damn v16 engine lol
i did not take suspension and gearing into account i mean twin turbo is bad ass but i really like the Shelby gt500 super snake that model is so bad ass although my favorite body style of newer muscle cars would have to be the challenger i liked that they kind of brought back the length of the vehicle what do those things run ide figure some sort of hemi?
with the right tires, rear suspention setup, and gearing, no, it wouldn't. you do make a good point though. just like when they comapred the 2010 ss camaro vs the gt500.
LOL FREIBURGER!!! HAHAHAHA
And with all black trim like the wheels and air-dam
Good Lord
I'm still not going to pay money to watch it.
This clip is from 2008 not the 90's
Hmm... is that a FRAM oil filter @ 2:41? I was told never to use those.
This has to have happened after 1995 since they refer to way back in 1995 Nelson created Nelson Racing engines... So why so many mullets?
That hair though.
I appologize! Typos suck! However Freiburger "Furby" you rule man! I to shed (sic) a tear at the passing if Gray "ol dad" Baskerville! Keep it real and totally nuts bro! P.S. Working on a RWD 383 stroker swap for my '86 prelude! Wrong wheel drive sucks!

why?are there new roadkill serries then?
This is really cool seeing frieburger before road kill but don't think I don't know he was around ever since the early nineties car craft. Also, doesn't he look a little fatter back then?
pretty sure if supras see this camaro they would shit themselves instantly
are there any vids of the 4 second run, if so can you give me a link?
@Mrbulldog762 set up for what?
That's a nice Avro Lancaster at 0:52. 1500hp is a lot? Try 5120 on that lancaster!
idk about you guys and your comments but no a stock v8 block will not make 8,000 hp sorry. 3s in 1/4? Idk but ive seen top fuel and funny cars go low 4s in 1000 ft
holy crap did no one get a haircut back then? Way back before scissors???
I really am going to
