JB Granger’s 1966 Corvair called “FnNader” was built for the Speed Channel’s “Are You Faster Than a Redneck” show and has competed in road racing and autocross events since 2015. The factory flat-six was replaced by a 6.0 L LS2 V8 that makes 389 hp at 6,000 rpm and 365 lb-ft at 4,400 rpm. Power travels to the rear wheels through a Centerforce flywheel, DYAD dual-disc clutch, and Mendeloa SR2 five-speed transaxle with a Dana 44 limited-slip differential. The Corvair rides on a C5 Corvette suspension with JRi shocks/PAC springs and Baer 14-inch disc brakes with six-piston calipers in front and back.
