    At 1300lbs dry weight indeed not light. But with 8200cc of Detroit V8 iron goodness powering that weight you can really get your torque on...! I just need to make sure not to go into tight corners too hot. Nor to crank the throttle on gravel.

    Edelbrock Quadrajet 795 cfm carb

    Thirsty... aye it is. But I don't pay attention to fuel economy as long as I have enough to get to the next gas station :-)

    Does it need much body english?

    How easy does it break traction if you give it a handful in a straight line? Light up easy?

    What are the stoppers on it?

    What are next week's lotto numbers?

    Boss Hoss 502 Quick FAQ

    And here we are...

    Does it need much body english?

    Yep!

    How easy does it break traction if you give it a handful in a straight line? Light up easy?

    Check out 1:04 on this clip.

    When you hit it, the gyroscopic forces unleashed due to the longitudinal placement of the V8 block give you a wake-up call. Oh yes they do.

    Spinning the tire on the 502 is real easy. Hit the throttle, open the Quadrajet's secondaries, and order a new tire online, all in the same minute.

    What are the stoppers on it?

    Dual front discs, single rear disc (Wilwoods on my bikes, Brembos on later models).

    What are next week's lotto numbers?

    1, 3, 5, 7, and 8. Or something similar...
