1/2 hour of ideas...and glorious noise.

Some of 'em aren't gassers, and some of 'em persist with the non-historically-correct nosebleed-front-end stance, but they're all pretty cool.

Best video I've seen in a while . . . just cars and noise  !

Gassers are ridiculous. 

But for some reason i can't explain, I'm drawn to them and really dig them.

Weird.

I tend to agree that most of the wannabe cars are a little lame, and totally useless for anything but racing.

Still, when they were REAL race-cars, the accessibility of the class to just about anybody with a decent job, the individuality of the cars, and the technical innovations and excellence achieved by non-degreed engineers made them among my favorites

Modern drag racing is missing a lot by the lack of the Gasser and Modified Production classes. How magnificent and colorful these homebuilt hot messes were! (And the early AWB funny cars, too.)
