Your testicles are jammed right up against the rearend...

i'm just p***ing on a funny comment from youtube, about brian fox's adventure at the hamb drags...

"I was once partners in a front motor dragster. The driver told me he would never lift, if it was sideways and he lifted the car would head in whatever direction the car was pointing. So I'm guessing the reason this car did not crash was the driver not lifting.
It takes real stones to drive one of these. Your testicles are jammed right up against the rearend, the trans between your knees."

he's right, it takes a special kind of guy to drive a FED...

 

Great stuff. got a little sea sick watching, but great stuff.

 

anybody make kevlar drawers? ouch, cool video.

 

Great video, I almost pee'd myself and the music is great!!!!

 

They need to do that again, but this time with a camera on the drivers helmet!

 

Who was the camera man... Michael J. Fox?

 

That's ****ed up. But funny.

 

behold the power of pucker power! i would have soiled myself!!

 

anybody driving one of those that does that has the right to without being ridiculed. most people would be scared to get in the thing.

 

Perspective - it's a wonderful thing.

 

Ha, Ha. Someone in the hotel parking lot after the race asked me. "Why didnt you lift?" And I told him "I thought I could drive out of it!" And I really thought I could.

At the drags in '08 the car was in storage all winter and soon as I brought it home my house sold , so back in storage till about two weeks before the HAMB Drags. So I didnt know that the steerin that I had changed around for the new headers wasnt worth a damn. We tried to make one p*** but the car didnt make any power. Some how the mag was retarded big time. So we fixed that , BUT I called it a day knowing that the steering wasnt right. And I knew if I got into a harry situation that I probably couldnt drive out of it. Because of the ****py steering.


So the bottom line is dont hurry up to get your car there. It isnt worth it, especially a car like this.


But a few weeks after that we took it to Benton Ill and had a pretty sucessful day. Kind of. Link to story Tim Conder wrote about that day. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=302896

 

Also I forgot to add that the ***le of this thread is also a movie ***le. That Monsterflake and Plowboy co-star in.

 

Even I think thats wrong.

 

OMFG!!!!!!!! sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.

 

that was awesome! I was on the phone to a buddy telling him what he missed by not coming there and you do a nice little donut on the line without hitting anything, all the while I'm screaming in the phone about how cool that was!
Good times! LOL.

 

WTF! 11 times I have tried to watch this video, on the HAMB and on YouTube, every time it gets to 1:39 and stops I swear its a conspiracy!

Wow...he makes a good point there. My supple testes feel mighty fine gently pressed against my triple chrome plated rear end housing. It's...it's kind of cold at first which is a bit startling, but after a few moments the boys acclimate to their new environment and cozy up to the smooth, unforgiving surface. I can see their reflections in the mirror like landscape of the Currie hydroformed housing and frankly, I personally am not aroused by the visual (I suppose that's going to have to stay a thrill for the ladies) but the sensation is absolutely FANTASTIC.

Now, my hat's off to Brian Fox for doing this his way and I don't mean to sound bitter or jealous, but frankly I think he was a little bit of a puss for making that run wearing PANTS of any kind. Flame retardant or otherwise. If he was a real man (like ME) he'd be making p***es as God intended, free and unfettered with his best buddies bouncing happily along with that differential. A "nature" dance coupled with man made technology, which was pioneered by the likes of Jenna Jameson and her peers...If you will.

Sure, the lucky mother!@#$ER got to experience this with the gears violently SPINNING and vibrating, generating tremendous heat and no doubt providing realms of experience only a handful of human beings have ever had the good fortune to have.....SURE! MAYBE he's doing something I wish I could be doing but instead I have to sit in my car NAKED in a sweltering storage unit ALONE daydreaming about something I desperately want to DO!!!!!!!!! That MOTHER!@#$ER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Still, if he was a true bad*** he'd be doing it without pants.

 

and in the 1960's they had a Halibrand quick change in there too.

 

Looks like the camera man wasn't lettin out of it either. Right on the rail and when that thing got outta shape he just hung in there.

 

wait 'til august, it's gonna be awesome!

 

i don't know what's up with that, maybe the australian government doesn't want you to know how awesome brian fox is...

 

Someone lifted

 

Fact or drag racing "urban legend" ? Supposedly one of the sports early heroes lost his "family jewels " in a rear end explosion.

 

I'm glad I was there to see it in person. The story and this video will continue to grow into legendary status. It's too freaking cool not to.

 

I wouldn't be suprised, sitting right on it and it exploding.

 

Geez, when I read the ***le of this thread, I was expecting to see that long awaited Richard Simmons *** tape...

 

Things like that is why we all love you so much.

 

As soon as I am able to grow facial hair, I'm going to try to be like Brian. But shorter.
