Projects ZORBAS GHOST dragster gets front nose and paint

Very nice ! Cant wait to see it up close !

 

The gold with the red pinstriping...WOW, it totally pops against the blue candy.

 

good news and bad news from this weekend's action!

1st, the good news. no damage from the sideways, tire boiling pass that forced a half-track shutoff.

the bad news? for some, god knows what, mental fucking lapse, THERE IS NO ONE WITH A TWENTY FUCKING DOLLAR TRIPOD, FILMING EVERY FUCKING PASS, EVERY FUCKING BURN OUT, EVERY FUCKING TEST RUN THE KING MAKES!

for love of everything evil in this world, if you're a hamb'r, make it your personal fucking mission to get a tripod whenever you hear the KING and ZORBA'S GHOST fire up, and get it on tape and get it to ME! i'll get it on youtube and we can ALL enjoy it! hallelujah! pass the fucking tylenol...

 

I don't know whether to be pissed or ecstatic.... You need to build another one the way it was before because I am in love with the old and new. I can't even begin to tell you what an inspiration this thing is to me. MONSTERFLAKE is right on you dirty teasers......

 

it's okay, there'll be another, more 'elemental' dragster from the king. know why? cause he's too awesome for just one car...

 

I would have fun picking that guy's fiendish brain!!!!!

 

Looks Great I wish mine looked that good.

 

Ha, ha monsterflake. Maybe we should have a smokin hot gal that just walks the track lookin for debris before everypass. Then you know that there will be alot of film of us. I have a nice Suicide King video. Then when my friend went to film me in the same spot. But other lane the dick freak track person made him move. He even had a crew wrist band and was well behind the car?!?!? So the video of mine is reall shity.

Thanks for the kind words, Checkedgoldtop, And like I posted before there is a new digger in the collecting parts stage. But first I have to build a Model T.

 

After seeing your paint KING I am going to burn my Digger.........Beautiful.

 

No, no Royal . Dont do that. That is what my new car is going to look like. What is the wheel base on that?

 

My God son that thing just gets better and better. I wanted to make it up this past weekend it just wasn't in the cards. You should have some pics shot of that thing and make up a poster. Going back to Sikeston anytime soon?

 

bump in hopes of some video....

 

You made smallblocks respectable again with that car. The alcohol makes it perfect because it is cheap. I found plans for a don long of that era and when dad retires it's on.

 

Yeah I thought alchol was cheep too. They raped me for $7 a gallon at the track. I hate that track.

 

Flake man, calm thyself. All I had on me was a cellphone, and it takes "tiny" video. Plus some track goobers got in the f'n way. Gimme a bit lemme see what I can do bout posting my very small vid.

 

Testing.... OK it works, and yes, that's me yelling like an idiot at the beginning, and yammering about the MoKan donut.

Franz, thanks for the video. That is alot better than what I have. You can see the track dick run off my friend, WITH a crew armband. And he is standing on the other side of the wall. But lets other fucks stand right next to him?

Anyway, I knew I left softer than I usually do. I was thrown off guard by the PRO TREE. I usually mat the throttle on the second to bottom bulb and dump the clutch a split seccond latter on the next one. My crew members said it was cool to stand right behind. As the car was a graceful sideways but going straight ahead.

Usually I leave so hard that the motor just really screams HARD. So I am trying to learn to leave HARD then back pedal just a hair to get it to hook just enuff to move faster forward. And to let the motor rpms down just enuff to still smoke the tires. FINE LINE THERE. But since this time I didnt leave HARD when I back pedaled it the motor bogged down. Damn dirrect drives. Anyone suggest I put a Powerglide in it I will scream. I will figure it out. Gettin better every pass.

Oh and Franz you yelling ZORBAS GHOST as I am coming out is a really great feeling for me to hear on the video. Thank you.

 

Model T? You've perked my ears up a bit. What's the plan? Anything I can do to help?

 

This car is one of my favorite FED's

 

The T is going to be the next car in the Barron Von Bierman stable. A crazy blown , injected hemi, street/drag car. In memory of the old shop dog at Creative Customs. R.I.P. T-Bag

 

kick FUCKING ass!

 

I recommend a sedan. T sedans are going to be the next big thing.

 

JUST BADASS. That thing is BEAUTIFUL.

 

killer

 

Fraz. No N. It's short for Frazer.

Ah screw it, call me Will.

And you're welcome. Sorry bout the pile of drool on the Rivi push car earlier, that was mine.

 

What the hell is left to say?? One badass hotrod

 

Are you guys running a crowerglide? How do you like it?

 

NO. A Crowerglide works like a go-kart clutch. More throttle you give it the tighter it gets. My dragster has a dual disc LOCK UP clutch. McClode is the only clutch manufacture that would work with me on such a set up. Believe me I spent literaly dozens of hours on the phone with people. But a tech guy at Crower was the best help I had. Everyone wants to sell you the modern billett clutch set ups. I wanted stamped steel hat, floater disc , two plates and stands. And what I got was real nice. Just like the old days.
