439BHP N/A VW KARMANN GHIA RIPPING IT UP IN VEGAS

Описание: Mexx from Mexxspeed Racing shipped his Karmann Ghia from Austria to the US, to race at the Cory Mac Vegas World Finals at The Strip At Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Running in the Xtreme Class, which we were hoping to have more entries, but unfortunately only had two. Mexx in his 2977cc Karmann Ghia and Jim Grant in his amazing looking 2.9L Fuel Injected Pauter Built Beetle. We did not see Jim's car run until the final, where it still had issues starting up and doing a burnout. Eventually the starting official timed Jim out, and Mexx went down for a single pass, taking the Win with a time of 8.93 at 149mph.

Watch the video and make your own mind up on whether Jim should have been given more time, or the official was correct in timing him out. It did cause a lot of controversy at the time.

Jim did get his car going, and made a pass shortly after, with a run of 9.62 at 150mph.

Mexx also stayed over to run at the Import Face Off show on the Sunday, where he put in another 8 second pass, with a run of 8.98 at 148mph.

Mexx's best time over the Weekend was a run of 8.87 at 149mph, which he did after making some adjustments after his crazy wheels in the air slide in the previous run......
