Old school FWD turbo cars always carry a certain nostalgia that we love. We’ve known Jeff a long time and we’ve always enjoyed seeing his Dodge Omni GLH (which stands for “Goes Like Hell”) out and about. For it’s age, he’s managed to keep it looking surprisingly clean and while it only makes around 300hp it is still a ton of fun to watch! Competing in I-29’s Heads Up No Prep Series at our local track I-29 Dragway, Jeff can be found going rounds in the Front Wheel Drive class!

Does anyone know who owns the civic that burnt the clutch at 0:47? A buddy of mine owned and built that car for 11 years and sold it. He's been trying to find the current owner to buy it back
Dodge Ommi GLH …. The Phymouth Road Runner of the '80's … Cheap , Fast and tough to beat….
my old 69 had the larger VW engine , neve
r beaten at the lights turn the key its started NO CRANKING just on AMAZING like electri c carf
"280" and that sheepish grin after was major LULZ
Every thing right with Dodge ?
Owned an 85 Selby Dodge Charger. That was a fun little car.
Idk about the "stock 2.5", pretty sure all GLH omnis had 2.2's
My folks had an ‘86 and I’d take the keys any chance I could get. To this day (for reals), I’ve NEVER been in any hatch whose torque could throw your head back like that GLH.
I remember the very specific SOUND of that turbo winding up. Hoooooo t’was one beauticious sleeper of the decade. 🤘🤘
Years ago a friend had one of these, embarrassed a LOT of cars. Went through half shafts like they were made of pretzel rods though.
I have a regular Plymouth horizon and I think umma go ahead and turbo it haha
None of the GLH GLH-T or GLH-S were mandatory with a 5 speed gutrag manual transmission. Carroll Shelby didnt make any of these with an automatic 3 speed.

Funny. I had an 87 dodge Omni 2.2 that beat the fuck outta everything in the 90s. Before the internet thing.
I used to own one of these, 5 speed standard. I used to get smirks on the highway, until I dropped it down to 4th and hit the gas!
There was a turbo omni listed here in ga last week
Guess we can't see the engine bay😵😢😢
I remember the commercials for this little dodge omni, they said
" no more Mr. Nice guy"
Lol.
My first car , Dodge Dayton turbo z . Same setup when stock .
Nothing on the cavalier?
True "Drag Car" dragged it out of a field and restored it. nice
The owner said its using its stock 2.5L. They didn't come with a 2.5L. They came with a 2.2L
Looks like it 60-foots like a champ!
