This Herbie was one of three built to outrageous performance specifications with a 2300cc engine breathing through two 48mm Weber carburetors )see the massive air filters visible in each side of the engine bay) and driving through a four-speed racing transmission. Each of the three NASCAR Herbies cost about $75,000 to build, with $20,000 of that spent on the drivetrain, which accounts for why, during testing at Irwindale Speedway and California Speedway, this car was timed at 138 mph ( 222 km/h)
