INSANE WHEELIE..60 ft.on back wheels..454 tunnel ram 2-4's AMC Eagle SX-4

Awesome wheelstand at Richmond Dragway. '81 AMC Eagle SX-4. Stock bore 454 with tunnel ram with 2-4's. This weekend it ran 6.16 @ 112 in 1/8th and 9.78 @ 137 in 1/4!! All motor! No juice, blower,or turbo charger, just Big Block Chevy power. The next run the FreakinEagle stood straight up on the back bumper and almost flipped backwards. Our day was done. What a show. The Dragway told us not to come back until we had whleeie Bars! Ha, Ha.! Most people think it is a Pinto on steroids. The short time (60' time) is less than 1.39. Not too shabby for a stock leaf spring with SSM slapper bars and a stock Nova 12-bolt rear with 4.10 gears!

My parents had a concord. A chevy engine in AMC is wrong.

What did the Concord turn in the 1/4 mile?

So I guess that was you I saw at Richmond in October. I was amazed when I saw your car. That's only like the 3rd Eagle I've ever seen & the only one that wasn't a wagon.

Thank you for the comment. Yes, I like it because it is different and rare.

Way to stay in it!

were you taking a video off a TV screen?

Holy crap! And people thought 4WD cars were crazy back then :) Now look what they've done!

[freakineagle]

Yeah, you are right about that! The strip told us not to come back unless we had the wheelie bars. Thanks
