Roush-Yates Goes Drag Racing with NASCAR Engine

What would happen if you took a NASCAR engine and slapped it between the frame rails of a drag racing Mustang? Terry Bren will soon know, as this experiment on the Mustang nicknamed the "Twisted Cheeto" will soon come to fruition.

This video documents the first pass down the 1/4 mile ever for this NASCAR engine after it was installed by Terry Bren of R/T ProTech in the Mustang Dragcar. The car ran a 9.68 @144mph on the first pass and a 9.51 @145mph on the second and final pass of the evening. Without Nitrous, a turbo, a supercharger or any other type of power adder, Twisted Cheeto was the fastest car at the event! There were approximately 175 cars that posted times that night at Darlington Dragway.
