5000hp Hurst Olds

Just saw this and thought I would share. It’s pretty bad a** but doesn’t belong in my garage. https://www.motorious.com/articles/news/1984-hurst-olds-is-a-5-000-hp-daily/amp/

It may be street legal, perhaps, but nowhere close to a daily driver. I want to see it drive across country. THEN I'll be a believer.

This has been posted here before.

I can't say that I don't care. And I do like watching videos about this kind of thing, but street car it is not. Not even a little imho.

Without watching it again, I believe the owner was pretty well bummed out when it broke. This falls into the same category as the Drag and Drive event guys that are pissed when their 3000+hp cars crap out (that's on a Pro Mod chassis). Still fun to watch, but street car they are not, and 'daily?' - haha


Thanks for posting though - it's a neat concept.

Nah, nothing wrong with seeing the car try to break 300, for sure. It's pretty cool. But the owner, or someone, is trying to convince others it's something that it is not.

Well, for sure. I mean, who wouldn't want to say "Sure, I'll run down to the store and get another gallon of milk, Dear!! Just let me grab the keys to the H/O!"
