Set to "Deja Varoom" from Southern Culture on the Skids, some friends of mine. Check out the small bock dragster with the front mounted blower and the V12 (Allison I think) powered car.

Good stuff, thanks for posting that. :thumbsup:

That is cool! Its amazing how little protection and saftey equipment those guys had.... I believe a couple of the small block rails have SCoT blowers..
That allison literally incinerates that tires! :D
I posted the link on a local drag racing message board.

way too cool, i'm just old enough to remember, sitting no my dads shoulders and watching those types of cars run at places like lions, and even at the local air stip in camarillo ca. thanks again, i just love that stuff....

Here's more vintage drags in a video by one of my favorite bands 'The Dynotones':

I am a big fan of early 60's Orange County CA drag and surf culture. That explains the kooky wheel and tire selection for my Chevelle. :D

I thought y'all might like that. Rick, the singer/lead guitarist for the band has a 69 El Camino. I tried getting him to join the site but he's way too busy between recording, touring and his new son. Too bad, he's a pretty funny guy. He calls his El Camino the mullet of the muscle car world.

NOW...that is funny. :)

He calls his El Camino the mullet of the muscle car world.
A friend of mine has a '67, and his kids call it CAT/DOG.

Those are wild, and I'm amazed at how squirrelly they are coming out of the hole. You realy had to pay attention.

I wish that starter was on "Pinks". Maybe I'd watch it more often.

The dragster with the Allison airplane engine was Art Arfons' Green Monster.
I believe the gold dragster with the enclosed cockpit was the Dragliner.
Potvin was at one time very common for the front blower drive setups.
