History Drag cars in motion.......picture thread.

This pic was probably taken during the Winters or Finals in between qualifing when hardly anyone sits on that side of the track. Trust me, it gets full.

 

Hands down one of the most beautiful rails ever made

 

The Golden Greek, Chris Karamesines

 

Oh man, I recognize that shot of Steve Carbone's rail. In that magazine is an article titled "Percolator". Think you could post that article?
Thanks,
Ken

 

The dreaded little red car is back up for Tim Conder.

 

notice the chev ll has air under the tire

 

I couldn't help myself!

 

What has happened to all the pics? Why is the site really slow?

 

It's like foreplay..... It's coming and you just can't wait!!!!

 

"You get what you resist the most!"

 

Wow... thanks for not letting this thread die!

That's a great shot. I've never seen the dragster in person, but I have seen the Bearcat. Re-named "Rare Bear", she's still (as far as I know) running around the pylons at Reno every year. There are no props on her in this photo, but I think they were using modified turboprop blades. They were huge with a lot of pitch. Very unique sound when flying by at speed-you could "feel" it in your gut!

 

What a great thread! How many of you had a picture like that taped to your notebook in junior high or high school back in the day? I love this stuff. Thanks everyone.

 

Man, the paint on this FC knocked me out back then! I hope that stuff makes a comeback like everything else has been. Lace and cobweb paint? Outa sight!

 

i am in love.
