RG's new Corr Pro 2

[FlyHiFlyLo]

Jonny @ Alpha building the truck, Yates building the power, RG driving... Major punishment to field.... Not fair. :D

[Chase 2]

Dude, you're slacking big time, that's old news. This was available from a more reliable source this morning!! Alpha Pro 2 (http://www.race-dezert.com/forum/showthread.php?t=33522)

Yeah so... My point was... Major punishment to field.... Not fair. :D

It's going to be worse than what RG does to the Dakar Field this year with the latest Hummer.

[John_Bitting]

RDC will be following the build taking pics along the way so watch for some rolling chassis pics in a couple of weeks.

[MMI1221]

truely NOT FAIR. can wait to watch!!!

Yah hes gonna punish that nice truck. Your right. Just like he punished the other pro-2 he was driving.

Forget it then. Kaiser had told me it was for Rudy Guiliani.

No T&A at the vegas race if thats the case.

[cheap jeep creep]

he has to finish a corr race first

[MGERALD195]

I'd be more worried about the Rob racing the Redbull pro 2...

[Martin]

he has to finish a corr race first

When he gets the right truck and team in place he will be fast.

[Martin]

It will be the Rob and Rob show.

[jonathanb]

When he gets the right truck and team in place he will be fast.

Or when he stops hitting the k rail he will be able to finish a race and be fast.

[Kartman]

When he gets the right truck and team in place he will be fast.

Is that supposed to be some kind of dig at the Baldwin team?

[CaptinCrash]

I bet it breaks first time out

[Bulldozer]

I bet it breaks first time out

I'm willing to bet more then half of the current pro 2's broke their first time out.

:cool:

[Mary Kay]

I am sure the truck will be very fast. But my two questions are, will it be at every race? Who will be in it when Robby is going in circles for the day?

[Marty]

He thinks the K-rail is like the soft walls in Nascar !!!

LENNY ?????

[Brandon Johnson]

What is that supposed to mean? Baldwins didn't do their jobs or the truck wasnt competitive ...? Robby doesn't have a good team? I thought the truck was great as well as robby. A few "more than slight brushes" with the K rail and the truck broke.
Oh yeah Robby is already fast too.

[Martin]

Is that supposed to be some kind of dig at the Baldwin team?

No dig at all, Johnny and Rob have built in my opinion the best trucks and cars in the desert.

[DailyPedal]

The truck broke because Wally D. was doing his hotlap Wally World segment before the race and almost crashed the truck big on the table top. That caused the steering issue which caused the k-rail issue which caused the DNF. With the race comming up right away, the team had no time to re-prep the truck (otherwise would have found said issue) and RG ran a tweaked truck...that is my opinion and I am sticking to it...flame on...

[pdailey]

Does anyone know if the Yates power is a version of the NASCAR engine or the Daytona Prototype engine??

[EASTCOAST DUKE]

What did it cost?
Who's the sponsor,MONSTER?

[racinteach]

why is not done yet? hurry up...get them welders going..

[Ron_Burgandy]

omg idk but me thinks this thread went downhill kthxbye

[bcampbell04]

It will be the Rob and Rob show.

it will be the rob, rob, and jerry show...kind of like it was years back in mickey thompson...going to be an interesting season next year. always can't forget renezeder & taylor too

[FlyHiFlyLo]

This short course stuff is all Robby... The truck should be making close to 900hp. RG will also put special attention to the build a set up... This won't be like RG just taking one lap before qualifing and then stomping the field to the first turn... RG in this truck will be total domination. Everytime he shows up. Sure he may break the first few outings but once he gets it dialed in nobody will be able to touch him.

[BANNED4LIFE]

at least u admit it, i'll give you credit for that, he will be the one to beat no doubt, all the money and plenty of talent, but to think it will be no contest anymore is FAR fetched.

[Bulldozer]

I think 900hp is a tad far fetched too.

[FlyHiFlyLo]

Well Yates is making 850 with a 358ci. Wait till they build him a 9000rpm 427 or 460ci. Poor transmission.

I'm sure Doug and the boys can't wait to see what they do with those type of inches.

I recall you saying robby's TT had 900hp a while back too. :p

[BANNED4LIFE]

only 390 inchers if you r trying to save weight

[inmymind]

After a certain point, are we not just spinning the tires-just faster?

[Bulldozer]

Yea but CORR is a spectator sport. The more horsepower they have the more spectators they get!

[TCPRacing]

After a certain point, they are just spinning their lips faster is my opinion...

[FlyHiFlyLo]

Oh yeah, that's right. But think about this... No comp or manifold restrictions either. A standard CUP 358 with EFI would be the way to go. That would still make 900hp.

[FlyHiFlyLo]

It did.

[Andy McMillin]

You and I both know it didn't fly, come on dude.

When they first built it, Spenny got 890 on the dyno. ;)

[Bulldozer]

When they first built it, Spenny got 890 on the dyno. ;)

Okay it was capable of producing 900hp in a perfect environment, but would you be willing to agree it was never raced at this much power.

[FlyHiFlyLo]

He was running with 815 the first B1k and laughlin but it kept vaporizing the V-drive oil and blowing the planet gear in the trans. The last 2.5 years Spenny has it set up for max tourqe and 740 peak Hp but still can see almost 8000 RPM... Right Andy?

[Andy McMillin]

Wow, if you're right Fly, that is crazy HP! Yeah that thing is crazy loud inside and revs over 8000!!!

[FlyHiFlyLo]

Wow, if you're right Fly, that is crazy HP! Yeah that thing is crazy loud inside and revs over 8000!!!

How's yours comparing?

[Andy McMillin]

Doesn't even come close!

.

if it was an 850 hp engine, it wouldn't make it out the door since it would be down on power big time. something would be serioulsy wrong with it.

the hp/cu in. ratio is really amazing for a pushrod engine not running on nitro.
very similar base to a drag motor, but can just last 600 miles.

all the major players are right there with each other. one just might have a better mid range power package than other for a short period of time. it all depends what you are working on and focusing the development on. takes cubic dollars to feed the constant development. it is constantly changing.

I saw the truck as it finished off its run and came off the dyno at Redline days before the 500. Sorry kids, but 680 was the max.

[jonpfive]

Fly Hi- Fact is dyno numbers mean nothing unless you are comparing motors on the same dyno. I can take the same motor to three different places and have a 50hp variance very easily. A dyno a is tool to use as a reference, something to let you know if you are gaining or losing on what you had. I can tweak the correction factors on my dyno to be able to say my pro-lite motors makes 360hp, but does it mean anything? Not at all. The real test is on the track. Good luck hooking up 900hp in Pro-2 with a 12.5in tire anyway.

[FAF07]

RG in a new Pro-2! Oh, hellz yeah!

[jonathanb]

It isnt all about horsepower. Johnny Greaves only has 700hp.

[handmethemic]

If I recall, jonpfive's uncle used to drive a class 4 that had a V-6. And he ran up front.

"I ain't sayin, I'm just sayin'."

[EASTCOAST DUKE]

I thought lighter was better,@#22?

[NicksTrix]

thats very true, it's more important to have your car work . doesn't do you much good to "handle" down the straight away when you have to slow for the corner & can't get off it either.
it's the whole package.

[Kritter]

Lighter is better...toyotas up front both days this weekend and everybody trying to build a lighter truck.

[hoeker]

are people finally figuring that out? my pro-2 is the lightest on the track, it races at 3750 (minimum weight) with a 220lb driver and 100 lbs of lead on the back.

[CaptinCrash]

hp is limted by corr at 800

[Bulldozer]

hp is limted by corr at 800

I'm not sure if this is true, but if it is they have no way to enforce it.

[FlyHiFlyLo]

Ok I conceed... RG just told me he contacted Doug Yates yesterday and took all your extensive advice. When he called Doug he said all the guys on race dezert say 600 horsepower will get the job done. He also told Doug that since Ford will be paying Doug for all the motors he doesn't want 2 fresh ones every race. RG said he would be running 100 laps at the most all weekend and felt with that great distance 850+ horsepower may be too much for him to handle and because Jonny Greaves only has a "Claimed 700hp" he shouldn't have 8 or 900 because Jonny's the greatest off road driver in the world and he wants to be just like him.

So to summerize everything: RG told Doug not to make him the most power possible because he only had a 12" tire and it might not hook up.

Yup, RG doesn't want 800-900 HP and Yates can't make that kind of crazy horse power anyways.

Oh and Chase, RG has been trying to reach your agent for a Dakar contract but he can't seem to get a hold of you. Call him... 1-888-UFN-WISH

[Chase 2]

Sorry Fly, you are still batting zero in this thread. All your witty little quips don't make you any closer to being correct, and you've totally been pwned by multiple posters who know much more about short course racing than you.

Oh and unlike you, I have no desire to be on RG's Dakar team. But I bet he's is prolly finding it harder and harder to find people willing to go back with him. I've told my agent that when he calls to tell him I'm in a meeting, that's why he can't get through.

[FlyHiFlyLo]

So now because you have proven you have no intelligent points to make you resort to trying to bash someone else? That's pretty cool man.

The first point made in this thread was RG will have a serious Pro2 machine... Then half the posts talk about how RG won't have 8-900 HP... Anyone who says RG won't have 8-900HP or 8-900 HP isn't needed to win in Pro2 is not intelligent. That Includes you.

Then we hear about clapped out dynos that are off by 50 HP... Here is an intelligent statement... I can Garrrrrowntee you Richard Childress' and Yate's dynoS are not out buy 50HP from one another.

300HP weedwacker? What a Joke.:eek:

[jonpfive]

I'm not worrying. I just get a kick out of Fly. He lets his man crush on RG take control sometimes.

[FBR413]

i'm confused, did fly hijack his own thread?? what the..

[Chase 2]

Hey Craig... Is that you in your profile pic? Man! Evil Kenevil has nothing on that big air! What's next? The palace fountains?

Nope not me. Its a pic from a vintage calender known simply as "Checker on a Husky". The pic is of a friend racing a 1970 400cc four speed Husqvarna back in 1971. Mike Mulconery was his name, he passed away a couple of years ago. If you had ever raced bikes back in those days that pic is worth thousands of words.

A little moody today I see:D . Chase, you are a bully and know it all, or come off as one anyways. Nobody likes a know it all, especially a know it all who is constantly coming up with false information. A little bit of tact would go a long way when presenting your facts, along with proof. If you were to offer your perspective with facts, rather than trying to put people down all of the time in the process of spewing your propoganda, I think you would find others, myself included, much more receptive. If the words above were to complicated for your vocabulary, here it is in plain, simple english....Stop being a jerk! ;)

They said to go see the 800 horse power trucks roar, I guess they ALL have 800 horse power:D either that or it's false advertising...
