Itīs a V8 with many parts of v8īs, cuadra jet carb.
We call "Carcocha" = "nice pice of little yunker", I dontīno about v8 , but in the start the v8 make o-60 mph in 10 seconds, very fast, in the corners was very good for a heavy weight.
Very Dangeurous, when i pass him I was in 90 mph 5500rpm, the red bug (left), and the V8 (right), 3 cars in the same line, then brake hard 3rd, and 2nd gear to the left corner.
The red bug break the crank
