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

I'm sure I have some somewhere but my files arent organized by car. Give me some driver or car names and I'll see what I can do.

 

Whoa, look at the pit side stands at Lions, must of been a big night. Damn I miss that time and place.

 

JBELL:

Thanks, for some reason everybody is having a hard time getting that photo blue like it shoulb be.

You did a great job.

And I remember when you could tell what make a Pro Stock car was

 

And I remember you could tell what make a Funny car was... and they actually had the same engine as the car make was.

And it was much better...

OK Guys & girls I'm about to comming to a close on the Funny Cars.

What do you want to see next, Top Fuel or Pro Stock?

Thanks,

Plum

 

I'm thinking "PRO STOCK"

 

Pro Stock

 

IMHO Pro Stock is too pedestrian unless airborne.

So if there are no more funny cars .
Bring on the fuelers.

And thank you all ever so much for these.

 

Pro stockers, please. As a wise man once told me, "Top fuel are for spectators, pro stock are for gear heads".

 

Top Fuel for sure. They only run pro stock so you can go get a drink and take a piss before the next round of fuel comes up. JC

 

Yeah, who want to see cars running mid 6 sec on unblown carb fed gasoline, where the drivers are still pulling the gears? All those close finishes and such, man that is so boring...

What Magnus said.

 

If it weren't for door cars there wouldn't be dragracing. Prostocks please. Of course I am most fond of the SS and FX cars. Thanks for all Plum. I like them all but lean to door cars.

Bring on the Kings......TOP FUEL

Plum do you have a photo of the Flying Dutchman from '64 or '65 when it was a full body car, SS or altered wheel base. I remember a cover photo on one of the magazines of the time that had a beautiful shot of it. I thought it was one of the best looking cars of the era, thats a big statement from a died in the wool Ford man like myself.

Thanks again for all the shots you post.

 

crappy shots, but I was just a kid...





I may not have taken this photo...

 

Been there and done that. I had a $2 camera when I was a kid going to the track. Missed some nice photo chances.

The shot on the cover had it Jade green with green tinted windows.

 

Hey Mazooma, do you have anymore shots of Les Ritchey?

 

x2!!

 

pro stock please!
