Belly and Drop Tanks have been trending here of late...not that they haven't always been a focus here as they are a force in streamlined go fast with active builds ongoing and numerous other historical Threads...

This idled decorated Ted Frye racer, part of a collection did 240mph in its heyday and will be given a restoration to bring it to its former glory of 1960 and displayed for appreciation of what helped propel the movement where it is today...

...Roaring Roadsters...I was watching a video recently on 40s dirt track racing and it was Literally called Hotrod Racing...at the link below...

Dangerous but they looked like Real Street Roadsters many if them...this one looks to have stock hoodsides as many did but many were modded in numerous ways...some not to pretty...

...Al Putnam in 1941...he finished in 12th place in the Indy 500 that year, and unfortunately met with fate at the track in 1946...these were incredibly beautiful machines but dangerous as hell with the lack of safety equipment but in Al's case it still may not have been enough...
