Quick GMC Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Garlitis- That sounds like a medical condition
BSB Racing Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 I think you get from too much clutch dust! Just thought since you guys are into slingshot dragsters, you might find this footage interesting?
Nitro Neil Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Thanks, we do find it interesting. But we also find your spelling of Don Garlits' name humorous.

John Teresi Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Bill……..this was absolutely fantastic………I loved it …….thanks for sharing.
Daddyfink Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) We do like'em and thank you. We where just kidding around, that's all! http://youtu.be/J1a8ZQxq8EE For some reason it won't let imbed the video. Oh well! Edited January 27, 2014 by Daddyfink
Skip Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Absolutely neat stuff. I remember the explosion that took part of Garlits' foo (from magazine coverage), how it was widely believed he would never race again. Then the rear engine dragster which was an oddity at first, then everyone else followed suit once he proved it could and did work. Garlits was an innovator almost from the start. Have to say I am really impressed with Don's wife Pat that's one strong lady, a lot of women would have walked away from it or told their guy enough!!
Bobdude Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 The subject of the video was great.I could have enjoyed it more if there wasn't the unrelated background music.What's wrong with producing just a video?
Harry P. Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 I think vampires can die if they get garlitis...
BSB Racing Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 Thanks, we do find it interesting. But we also find your spelling of Don Garlits' name humorous. LOL..............now I didn't see that till just now! Oh man, I hope it's not an STD!
BSB Racing Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Hey thanx Doc! If anybody would know if this was a disease or not, it would be the Doctor! Edited January 28, 2014 by BSB Racing
rmvw guy Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Thanks for posting this Bill. I read his book years ago and this brought it back to life for me once again. Visit his museum in Ocala, Fl. if you haven't already it is very worth while for any car guy. I have been a fan of his since seeing him race at the local drags back in the '60s. I love his message to kids and on his car "God is Love".
DrKerry Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Hey thanx Doc! If anybody would know if this was a disease or not, it would be the Doctor! Oh, it's a disease all right... and I got it BAD!!!!!
gbdolfans Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Thanks for posting that GREAT video!!! I saw Big Daddy race a lot at the Miami-Hollywood Speedway.Some of my best memories are of him racing!!
