  5. The OCMP car was a real pretty digger. Too bad it wound up in an irrigation canal. :(
     
  6. I can't help but imagine that once you got the nose that high, that front wing is just trying to help blow it the rest of the way over backwards. :eek:

    This is Kent Chatagnier's blown fuel Pontiac TE-440, heavily modified frame. The Texas-based dragster was called the "Blown Maniac."

    That might happen if that wheelie was at the top end, but when it happens off the line like in this photo, it's not going that fast...
