    Although Sedona is only 80 miles by highway from the International meet and hosting site for The DinoRally.com , Sedona also has a many back roads to extend the drive and perfect your art of Long Distance Dino Driving.

    Great fun - thanks for posting. Interesting how the wipers move up when you're red-lined on the Autobahn.;)

    We only had about 7200 in the video, but were at 7800 for quite some time. I have pulled 8500 in it, but that was to prove a point. Oil temp rises gradually if you sit above 7200

    If I spent a lot of time at that speed, I'd need to do something about the wipers.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the video! Sounds and looks like a sweet running Dino!

    Nice to hear that someone else is hitting - and sometimes exceeding - the redline in a Dino. I do it all the time, but I thought I was the only one. These are sturdy little engines, designed for high rpm operation.
    Any upgrades to your engine? I assume you have replaced the original valves by now.

    Great video! Very enjoyable.
