Congrats to all of the boys (and gals). Great job and it just shows how resourceful and clever us Aussies can be. They are some fine looking machines, that's for sure. Once again, wish I was there to see it happen. Well done to everyone. Can't wait to see more pics and any video of the event. The Rambler is still faster though.
Wow........thanks for the post on the down under HA/GR's...........I have been checking the HAMB this weekend looking for your post's of the first time out......the thing that is great is that no one complained or got their pant's twisted over what kind of motor you are running or tires......Just out there having fun....... Chris Nelson Kansas KC guys..........HA/GR.......on the low down.......I may be chasing a flat motor in the next couple of weeks.
None of the compe***ors have ever complained, the guys who put their money where their mouth was, the only tyre/engine type comments that we've recieved have been people who haven't committed. Again, I applaude the guys/girls who have put in the time, the heartache, the faith, the money, and the sleepless nights (that also includes our supporters/sponsors) to share our vision, a big thank you. Cheers, Drewfus
You guys kick ****, done a ****in killer job on those Hambsters. Nothin going on in Melbourne, just lots of talk...!
The HAMBsters make an entrance Jeremy Boskovich is first to go through scrutineering. He emerges with a thumbs up and it's official - The first HAMB Gas Rail p***es will be a reality. The Crew from Cruzin deserve our thanks for sharing the vision and providing the opportunity and support.
Andrew's Old Mule appeared ****! An inspiration for the many admiring spectators and racers. A big force behind this cl***, we will see Drewfus running his car very soon. "Ahh, Chief Steward. What the hell are these things?" All through scrutineering and a field of 6 will race in a brand new cl***!
QUALIFYING Joseph Rodriguez gets the historic first p***. - El Diablo 221ci Ford Flathead Ezio Cacciotti - The Lil Mexican 170ci Ford 6 Jeremy Boskovich - 239ci Ford Flathead John Dyer - 239ci Ford Flathead Smokin' Joe Formosa - 239ci Ford Flathead Nick Masttromauro - 170ci Ford 6
The HAMBsters return after their shakedown p***. The times tumble with each subsequent run. Eventually getting to the 14s. Next round of racing, we need one of these…
I can't think of enuff words to describe those pics...awesome!! ...damn proud of you guys. That was an awesome endeavor getting all those cars built in the time you had. Don't worry about the time slips. We were runnin' in the low to mid 15's when we first raced the Ramrods Hambster, untill we figgered it out. Would eventually love to run against you guys in an international meet...........Congrats to all!....
I LOVE IT. Great pics, cool trophy's cool everything. Comon Larry(3W) lets move over there and take the car,I wanta play with those guys.
Having a made a six hour round trip to watch the nostalgia drags I must say how impressed I was to watch these hambsters go down the track. They may not have been the fastest on the day but they were a**** the most exciting. The crowd was abuzz with talk of how good the hambsters looked and how much fun they must be. Congratulations to all you guys that made this possible. I think we will be seeing a lot more of these hambsters in the future.
Great pics Matt. They sure do all look great, but Smokin' Joe's roadster is just the ginchiest. Well done guys.
