Very sad that Jim passed away last year, I recall seeing him run his 63 Plymouth back in the mid 70's at the old Mission track.... Gone too soon, all my condolences and best wishes to his family...
Damn. Nothing sounds like a hemi. I remember in the 70's sitting in the stands. A hemi barracuda would run and they were the only cars you could also feel in your whole body when they ran.
Raced a 383 RR in the early 1970's stock, 8 inch slicks, headers,crane cheater cam, 456 rear, ran 12.6 to 12.8 in 1/4 mile. Was tacking about 5,800 RPM at end of quarter. still got most of the trophy's 46yrs. later!
Godamn! That is one sweet sounding/working car. One of my fathers friends had one of those. I still remember him leaving the better part of a set of tires in front of our house one night when he left. I think I was about 7 or 8 at that time.
Shit remember buying a red 67 Plymouth satellite in the 80s for a 440 to put in my road runner at the time them days are all most gone but this is a nice car good video
That's an original RO23 race car that's been a SuperStock car since new. Jim used to live in Port Alberni where the car was from. ( owned at first by Lyle Kidd i think) Historic car and really quick.
+Barry Peloquin A 1967 GTX was RS23 for hardtop or RS27 for convertible. The second digit denotes the price class of the car, in this case S stood for special. The price class O was reserved for the factory super stock cars, which in 1967 were converted low option Belvedere and (for Dodge) Coronet models. In 1968 the O price class was again used, but this time for the BO29 Barracuda fastback and LO23 Dart hardtop models.
Race Hemis will wind a hair past 9000 and never miss a lick. Any Hemi loves lots of RPM. My 70 cuda 440+6 started getting stronger above 6800 so I let it take all it wanted.
Rest in peace yes, he loved and lived what anyone would. It was a success time and legacy for him. I‘m a Pontiac guy yet NOBODY can argue what he had and did with it, NOBODY!
Beautiful satellite forgot I put a comment up a year ago yep I bought one in the late 70s for the motor it had a Maltese cross 440 in it it went good it had a little work done to it but not like this beautiful super stock hemi
the video is really great but nothing beats sitting in the staging lane, revving the engine and then waiting for that green lite, it never gets old. bless all you Saturday nite racetrack drivers, may you never red lite.
I remember going threw the staging lanes in Ray Christian's hemi cuda I was 10 at national trail raceway remember what Judy Lilly,s car said on the back? On the 8th day God created rhe Hemi
".....behold, for I have stood upon the mountain high, and I heard the voices of angels singing in heaven, and it was good.."....angels singing, or a 426 cranking at 7000+rpm, same thing.
They push in the clutch or in an automatic put it into neutral and use the brakes, this saves the engine wear as apparently it's hard on the connecting rods...easier to replace brakes than rods
@@RFedyk Thanks for getting back to me. I love the videos you took of this. Jim really did a great job behind the wheel. I find myself coming back often to watch the videos you made. Thanks Robert.
@@actiniumanarchy9237 Lol you guys obviously aren't true race fans. Always dickriding one side and can't just appreciate a good car. I always wondered how Americans can get such little power out of V8s but oh well

that 383 was bad! had em in the road runners.
A great 1/4 mile track in Hawaii. Sea level runs
I love watching a guy let it scream and not afraid of it !! let that HEMI BREEEEEATHE !! OHHH YEAH !!!

9 second quarter mile? Gettin it on! Love the hemi's!
Wow, HEMI power! Pullin hard even on the big end.......awesome!
Nothing like the sound of a Torquflite shifting behind a Max Wedge or Hemi. Love that sound!
Doesnt get much better then this!
That top end howl. Priceless.
I couldn't of said it better lol
I love the sound of Hemi's at the top end!
Sounds like a vintage Pro Stock car
Reminds me of the old Sox and Martin/ Finks Used Cars SS/E car. Nice video.
Holy shit what a ride! and I have to say I dig the shifting style of this guy
automatic
Nu
You dig is bullshit,that's a automatic, digg itt???

The RO23 models were only for the 1967 gtx not the Satellites......

think i just blew my speakers with the ride along
Great car,real nice. I have a 67 GTX for the past 29 years,love it.
damn sounded like 9000 rpm at the finish!
It was probably pretty damn close to 9000! Big cam Hemi's love high compression and high RPM's!
My 70 roadrunner 440 hit around 8200 rpm @ finish
Heads really breath after 6000 rpms. Lift and duration.
Race Hemis will wind a hair past 9000 and never miss a lick.
Any Hemi loves lots of RPM.
My 70 cuda 440+6 started getting stronger above 6800 so I let it take all it wanted.
that is one angry MOPAR
That's baaaaad I like love the sound of that motor
The guys give the hand signal for the burn out was excellent. Never seen a better clear and obvious hand signal for stop. Check it. Kudos man
That's right I have baddest era of cars and their beauty and power will never be forgotten, my history! 60s 70s
Man that's what perfection sounds like...
Good times, they have a beginning and an end, and I always loved this video of Jim.
Rest in peace yes, he loved and lived what anyone would.
It was a success time and legacy for him.
I‘m a Pontiac guy yet NOBODY can argue what he had and did with it, NOBODY!
That was fun. Beautiful city where that may be, awesome driving, bitchen video, insane Satellite.
Hes got that thing dialed in. That was great to watch.
When it says "let's go for a ride" after that it's all eargasim time. God that sounds so good.
great videography i loved everything about this
sick, sick, sick, on so many levels. Thanks for posting
I miss those days. Ran my 69 Roadrunner back in 1973.
Excellent video Robert
Geez!!! What a GROWL when he lets off that Hemi at the finish line..... I bet he was at about 7 grand when he shut it down!!!
12 people must have a Nova
Love the car...the track...goto make it back there in 2019.
Nice video JIm .... you're even faster now
Looks like a nice little track up there. Good air for good power......
Omg, that car is Pure Violence! Beautiful! 😍
I say, " Mopar or no car "
1963dodgeboy amen brother
Beautiful satellite forgot I put a comment up a year ago yep I bought one in the late 70s for the motor it had a Maltese cross 440 in it it went good it had a little work done to it but not like this beautiful super stock hemi
The big motor screams!
I could ride in this car all day.
Crossed the line accelerating. WoW!
Holy Crap Batman.....This puts the letters B.A. in BAD ASS!!!!! This guy knows what he's doing and shifts like a Pro!!!!
How could you give this a thumbs down! Great video beautiful car!
Crazy sounding for a big block
beautiful ride!
And what a ride it was,love it.
god i love this car! thanks jim for sharing.
Wow I would definitely have to take a change of clothes if I got in that beast..good video thanks.
That is what compression sounds like 👍
That's Beautiful Love the sound
The cure for all unhappiness
THAT MOTOR IS BAD FUCKING ASS. BUILT LIKE HELL.
PURE POWER is all I can say and high rpms.
most excellent!
...only man made sound God's jealous of......
Nice run!
That's a bad ass Mopar
Nice loved the ride

Beautiful car!
now that is cool man! sweet car
NOTHING EVER LIKE A HEMI..
Got to love it nothing like the smell of burning rubber lol
Very healthy!
I love hearing a street Hemi at high rpm.
He sure wound it tight but a big car ripping off a 9.25 proves a hemi loves rpms.
Awesome!👍
AWESOME.....MOPAR FOREVER !
freakin amazing
Wow, That is a powerfull Mopar.
A thumbs up for you.
".....behold, for I have stood upon the mountain high, and I heard the voices of angels singing in heaven, and it was good.."....angels singing, or a 426 cranking at 7000+rpm, same thing.
Ahhhhhhhh, horsepower 😎
Hey! Plymouth makes it ❤
Fucking hell. I need a cigarette, and I don't even smoke!
Awesome
Here's a question I've always had, why do people seem to always press in the clutch and brake after a race and not let the engine do the work?
They push in the clutch or in an automatic put it into neutral and use the brakes, this saves the engine wear as apparently it's hard on the connecting rods...easier to replace brakes than rods
@@RFedyk huh, thank you. never thought of that.
Loved it!!
Robert Fedyk! What did Jim's Family do with his 426 Hemi Satallite!
Took the Hemi out and put a 440 in so the son in law races it in Hot Rod class mid 10s I think
@@RFedyk Thanks for getting back to me. I love the videos you took of this. Jim really did a great job behind the wheel. I find myself coming back often to watch the videos you made. Thanks Robert.
Excellent!
WOW!
I think I blew my laptop speakers out.. LOL
brutal
That's a Baad Josie. . .
and people think hondas are cool. much.
Patriot Pat eh let them have their 3 bangers and have them sink all their money into some mediocre I6. They wouldn’t be able to handle V8s anyways
@@actiniumanarchy9237 Lol you guys obviously aren't true race fans. Always dickriding one side and can't just appreciate a good car. I always wondered how Americans can get such little power out of V8s but oh well
I have yet to see a naturally aspirated 4 cylinder put out 800+hp.
I prefer Super Stock from the '60's where tires were 10.5". Now a days, they look like Pro Stocks from the '70's.
Yes Sir how fast is your car ? Et .mph ???
SCREAMING X
Is there a way to purchase a picture/poster of the still shot of the car doing the wheelie?
I do sell pics from my Facebook page, price depends on size from 8x10 to 16x20, I have many pics of his car
@@RFedyk Oh ok thank you I'll start searching right away !!
