FWIR the guy who designed the 944 for Porsche went to Mazda and helped with the RX-7 Gen2 design. -

Found this at the local hobby shop today. I remember when I was doing this in the late 60s/early70s there was a few Allison engined drag cars. I think Art Arfons was one of them (before he got into Jet Engines!) and I always wanted to build one..... Hmmm, I have a '53 Nash Sedan Delivery (Flintstone resin) that it might look good in! Or is this too valuable to even open up? I actually built a Thunderbird (71?) with a jet engine back then. I got my brother to buy a 1/48 jet airplane model (1/25 would'a been too big!) and then robbed the engine out of it and mounted it in the T-Bird. The intake was right behind the windshield and the tailpipe stuck out the back about a scale foot. Never got to finish that one...

To follow up on gasser classes, I looked far and wide to find original NHRA Rule books. I found a set on HAMB but either the links are broken or the files were created incorrectly (PDF). I did however find this (down a bit on the page) https://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/224328/ For instance, my introduction (Hello from the Badger State) shows my 41 Willys gasser with AA/G class designator, meaning it's from 1966. Hope that helps! EDIT: Oh, and to stay on topic, I always thought a 69 AMX would be a great Gasser!

Hello from the Badger State!
Raoul Ross replied to Raoul Ross's topic in Welcome! Introduce Yourself
I do not remember the name but there's Rail Road X-ing signal in the parking lot, 2 or 3 slotcar tracks and a scale drag strip in the back! Some really old/out of production kits, it was a little slice of heaven! -

Raoul Ross replied to Dennis Lacy's topic in WIP: Model Cars
See, this is why I only wanna build drag cars..... ALL THAT INTERIOR STUFF! LOL, just kiddin around, this is freakin awesome esp. that front spoiler, beautiful work!. The 'only' thing I see being off is the front seats need to move forward some, there's no foot room for the poor rear seat passengers! HA! -

Mucho Imprezo! Don't know if you've seen this as you seem to have found a lot of really great 1:1 shots, just thought I'd throw it out there. You can really see the differences between the original and the clone. https://www.drivingline.com/articles/the-mooneyes-dragster-cloning-our-heros-3-of-3/
