Lake Speed is a retired 90s NASCAR racer with a couple things still left over... Last year we pulled one of his old Ford C3 engines out of the dust for a full modern build increasing the horsepower from 480 to 780! Now at age 75, Lake Speed will hop in his Thunderbird for the first time since 2003 and lay on it wide open at the Virginia International Raceway road course! This is the same small block Ford C3 engine from the build series and dyno videos we did with Lake Speed Jr over the past year!
