    Now this engines been bad and it's been put in the cage...:D

    You do bring up an interesting divide between Street Hotrod and Race...it was the split between aerodynamics and looks which brings on the looks over the winning edge discussion...:eek:

    Now looking at drag racing there was a point where there was so much power it pushed the brick down the track Hood or no hood...but racing still covered up with the Steamlined Covered Dragsters and Funny and full body type Cars...

    They also all had quick changes at one point. Although the California Kid does not now it did in one of the early iterations.
