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

Thanks - Glad your enjoying them - Sorry - but I don't recall any individual shots of the C/A, but I'll check and see if I can find it hanging out in any background shots!

 

Great photos dog... thanks for posting those up!

 

After I finished looking at the explosion, I noticed the IFS. Never saw one done like that before.

 

Heres one

 

I ran against Old Gold last year, here at Medford. I'd seen the car run for years, so I KNEW what was gonna happen - but when we went green, I just found myself staring over at that giant car, going up, up, up, right next to me - and next thing I knew, he was gone...
Freight trained me.

 

is that kenny bernstein...?

I didn't think this thread could get any better and then along comes Dog427435 with a $#!* load of incredible pics.......wow.

 

Yep, in 1968.

 

Dog427435 you are the man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I like that GTO fender cover

 

I would love to see some more clear pictures of this car.

 

Check the dial in on the Triumph TR-4A..10.25! The Triumph Owners Club would have a fit if they saw one of the chrerished cars powered by an American V-*

 

The Australian Sporting Car Club, has just instigated legal action!!

 

I have to agree.

 

Thanks, I've been looking in the backgrounds of the ones you've posted so far and haven't seen in. I think he ran it up to about '64 or '65.

 

This 53 Willys is awesome.

 

Wouldn't you just love to take that exact car to one of their shows???

 

A buddy of mine had a really nice Morris Minor, right hand driver. But it was pro-streeted (not a poser, it went good). He went to an MG meet and those folks were not happy!!! Really wish I had a picture!!!

 

It's definitely Sanford. But............The timing stand was on the other side of the track in '63 & '64. This looks to be somewhat earlier. I also worked and raced up there with Sam Martin and his Kompact creations. I was wondering if anyone would ever remember that A&B Speed Shop also ran an injected roadster.(pic #1) I only saw that car once in '64. Last race of '64 it was so cold we had to use Sam's 19553 Packard hearse for a timimg stand. A&B broke the 7sec barrier on their last run that Sunday. I also was a member of the New England Hot Rod Council. Good memories.

 

Sorry........I was responding to post #7153..........Got carried away. God, I love this thread.

 

I would just like to take a moment to officially thank Royalshifter for starting this rightous thread, THANKS SKIP!!

 

I second that!
