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

Thanks man. I already tried that one and never even got a "f K off"
out of em. I'll try again as the Wallaces are probably my best hope.

 

The IS the Wallace's

 

I totally agree.

 

How about a 6.20 ET, 195 MPH Kart? Rocket powered with a five foot Deist!
Should have been sponsored by "Depends".

 

Duke,was it Denny Andrews ? I think Barker(Larry maybe ?) also drove the Psycho. Dennis Doubleday

 

KSCUDA thanks for the memories of Minnesota Dragway. I was probably there the same days you took these. I helped out Ma&Pa back in the day.
John Foster ran a quality show back in the day

 

I took this from Ray Erickson's thread. It's Bob Sullivan, later of "Pandemonium" top fuel and funny car fame. He's running this roadster here in 1954 at Elma, KS. Bad quality, but great image.

 

This goes along with the go cart with the rocket engine on it.
This was taken at KCIR.
Was at Minnesota Dragways when Ky Michaelson strapped one of
those rocket packs on his son who was wearing roller skates and
tried to make it down the 1/4 mile. That was something to see

 

MADJACK, yes the Foster ran a real nice place.
You should remember this car, Hoovers old ride
in 1968

 

Another at Minnesota, the Crown Auto Special

 

another shot of the Crown Auto Special

 

This is from KCIR 1988

 

Mn 1968 my friend Don Dennis in the far lane

 

Blue Bandit at Minnesota Dragways

 

Thanks for the posts KS, great shots of rarely seen cars. Love to see whatever gas, altered, stock, S/S shots you have? nothing specific.

 

Caught up with Hoover again at Pomona Winternationals

 

Not a very good picture but here is Tom Hoover in his funny car

 

another flopper at Minnesota

 

Sorry, my Brownie Hawkeye camera didn't take good action shots in 1961-2. I thought this guy should get in the thread. Anyone remember his square tube AA Fueler? Minnesoa Dragways.

 

A shot from Indy, before they started having them just do the
cackle fests

 

Another shot of Tom Hoover, this time at Indy

 

Marsh-Steffey-Logghe

 

Looks like a painting.

 

He said it was from a 1954 Hot Rod Magazine. I guess it must have been real small and the texture you see is the halftone dots.

Royalshifter, you have an outrageous photo collection...keep 'em coming.

 

Be careful what you ask for! Mike is a great photographer (he's shot an unbelievable amount of photos) and caught a lot of really rare cars over the years.

Topeka, 2000...one of my favorite shots that he did. Just looks mean sitting there...even though it's not in motion!

 

WOW!!!! Now that's what I want to experience!!! I gotta get moving on my digger.

 

thats the car I helped with. In the late 70's it was a static display in MAS's front window on Hennipin ave, with a early iron block hemi dummied in the chassis

 

Here ya go Kerry.....you can almost hear it.
