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

Just learned some or most of my recent batch of photos come from the George Klass site and he told the guy posting them it was ok to use them but to give his site a shout out every once in awhile, so here you go if you got some time to spare visit George Klass Remembers http://www.georgeklass.net/index.html but be warned you can get drawn into spending hours on this site.

Not only the "Wing" (the Logghe chassis Wing II) but also the Dodge pick up. The last time that I rode shotgun in that truck with Mousie (and Willie in the urn) it had over 600,000 miles on it and it racked up plenty more in later years.

Brighton, England Speed Trials--single lane timed runs. Dante Duce ran the Mooneyes Dragmaster digger there in 1963 and then won the event the following year in the Moonbeam Devin bodied sports car which most likely used the Potvin blown engine out of the dragster at the time.
