  • i saw this bug at bugout 70 in VA!

  • I was watching the blonde with the camera. Who won ?

  • What do u think my 2275cc engine will do in the track? It has full interior. On some 15inch porsche alloys. Stock trany

  • @cookymonster70 There are alot of variables involved in that question. First of all you won't go far with a stock tranny. You'll more than likely break your ring and pinion in that tranny if you hook hard. As far as the engine, compression ratio makes a huge difference, cam size, what size carbs? I can tell you that I used to run a Naturally Aspirated 2275cc with dual 48 IDA carbs and a geared tranny and I used to run 12.80's on full street trim.

  • @68dragbug Well its a 1970 Bug wit a super beetle tranny. I am not sure the what cam Im running i would have to find out because a friend help me built it. I forgot which one am running, Well I know for sure that I am running dual 44 IDA cars and compression is 9.4 to 1. Well right now I'm working on a Porsche Fan convertion because its still my daily driver. It sucks gas like crazy...lol

  • @cookymonster70 You should still have no problems outrunning a new stock V8 Mustang or Camaro even with coming out of the hole easy. That setup should give you 13's comfortably. Just ease it off the line and you should run 13's with ease! I would suggest upgrading the tranny when you can afford it to atleast a SuperDiff setup. Then you can hammer it BUT watch wheel hop. That's a Bug tranny killer.

  • @68dragbug Two Question Sir? Where would be the best place or website where they sale gears and tranny parts if i want to buitl it myself? How do u get rid of the wheel hop?

  • it's nice, but will it blend?

  • Lol you guys sure about that? You might wanna go look around because your not the fastest at all...

  • I'm real sorry guys, but the fastest street legal original pan beetle is Norwegian.

    The Skinne Beetle just did 8.606 last weekend!

  • @daddyjlo This was a video that was added to the original vid. It's actually the fastest street legal bug on the East coast. I'm aware of the Skinne Beetle. One fast @ss ride!!!!!

  • I'd like to stick my krobar in that dirty tail pipe and ride the dogshit out of it! Right into a phone pole!! Oh baby

  • Sweet dub man I'm working on my jetta then getting a bug to tune up. And falken makes good tires for entry level street legal radials

  • oh no worrys im on the west coast, we are about a second quicker in out street vws

  • @EshenbaughRacing I was'nt worried,lol. You've got a long way to go before you can catch us. And actually the West Coast is not a second ahead of us when it comes to street legal VW's Bugs. Kris Lauffer has been a 9.33ET and he's the fastest Street Legal on the West Coast (they also sponsor me!). According to my calculations it's only .43 tenths faster than me and .33 tenths faster than Mean Gene Cook.

  • my "street bug" runs way faster 9's than that, check vids for proof

  • @EshenbaughRacing .. Don't see any vids of your runs? Keep in mind that they have to be backed within 1% and signed by a track official.

  • @EshenbaughRacing It should actually say "Fastest Street Legal Bug on the East Coast". I did'nt post this vid so I did not name it either. To be technical, the Fastest Street Legal bug in the USA is owned by Kris Lauffer of VW Paradise. The quckest Street Legal Bug on the East Coast is owned by Mean Gene Cook of Cooker's VDubs having run a 9.66ET @ 142MPH. I welcome you to come out to Unlimited Street East and run your car agains the baddest Street Legal VW's on the East Coast

  • @EshenbaughRacing i call bullshit post vid response

  • just for information the victor is in england and is 100% street legal, im english and live in germany and i know lots of people who have built their cars here and registered them in england because the laws there aren´t as strict its much easier to get a car through the tests in england! NOTHING BEATS A VEEDUB ON COOLNESS THOUGH!!!

  • what did it run? what kind of tires do you run?

  • The car ran a 9.76ET @ 145.13MPH. We run Hoosier Quick Time Pro "Cheater" slicks because the car is street legal and does cruise the streets.

  • wow thats awsome! i have always been a undercover bug lover.i owned a few fast mustangs and i have always wanted to build a fast street bug.

  • o and the vw paradise dragster is bad asss....operated by kris or his brother..

  • SWEEt man..i owend a 64 notch street legal 12.5 in 1/4..i am outta dallas texas..made it to a few bugins a few yrs back...had a 70 square 7-8s in the 1/8...1.75 60ft times...loved pissing on ford n chevys..! nice man!

  • not fastest car road leagal car the fastest is a vauxhall victor drag ster

  • I don't think a dragster is street legal. I've never seen one on the street.  Not only that the title states "Fastest Street Legal BUG" not dragster.

  • @keylord111

    you idiot. learn to spell.

    That vauxhall has a 9.something liter twin turbo engine, while this bug has a 2.7 liter at best?

    And that car is BARELY street legal. Its the absolute fastest. This bug is the fastest STREET legal VW bug.

    Moron.

  • red victor 1 is way faster (and its street legal)

  • Records are made to be broken. If he's faster then all he has to do is show a time slip. No Problems. We just happen to hold the record at Unlimited Street East. I love fast VW's, so send us a link to a video of one of the car's runs and we'll post it on our race website!

    Thanks for the comment!

  • Almost forgot. Is he on the East Coast? Because our "claim to fame" is "The Fastest Street Legal VW Beetle on the East Coast"

  • The world record for fastest and quickest four cylinder 1/4 mile drag vehicle is held by a type 1 vw based engine built and maintained by vwparadise of San Marcos California. Its official run is 6.60 @ 203.94 MPH quarter-mile although unofficially the quickest & fastest has been a 6.53 at 209.98 MPH.

  • The Record your referring to is the VW Paradise dragster.  They are one of our sponsors. They have recently taken that dragster and reset the 1/8th mile record with a 4.27or9 (not really sure) at over 170MPH! In the Friggin 1/8th mile! INSANE!

  • but its not street legal

  • Red Victor is NOT a VW.

  • Lord Destroyer is right, Red Victor is NOT a VW! BTW - Lord Destroyer OWNS the ET record for "Quickest Street Legal VW Bug on the East Coast" with a 6.15ET in the 1/8th and 9.66ET in the 1/4. We just happened to be a weeeee bit Faster in MPH! Lost of Fun!

  • red victor 1 is also in the UK :)

  • hot chick in skirt! lol awsome bug!

  • thats awesome as hell,id like to do up a bug like that

  • 9.76 @ 145.13 is pretty friggin quick for any street legal car. You almost got there before you left.
