The Freaki Tiki Nitro Funnycar: Ron Huegli's 55-year Dream Takes Its First Steps!

The Freaki Tiki finally made it down the track! This video features some of the challenges of sorting out a new and home built Nitro Funnycar. Follow along this unfiltered journey as Ron and the team deal with multiple issues but in the end get the car down track 400' or so to make a solid test pass. There is nothing like nitro methane as any drag racer or fan can attest. This car is angry and it is going to run hard in 2027. This video features footage from outside the car including some donated video from Gwendolyn Molly Oakley (the kingpin behind Ron in this operation). Also included is GoPro in car footage showing Ron behind the wheel. Check this guy out, he is calm cool and collected driving this beast! If you love nostalgia nitro racing or the grind of a funny car team behind the scenes, you're going to enjoy this one. Bravo to Ron and Gwen for bringing this car from concept to reality!
