You have to remember that these altered wheelbase cars and such were running low 11s in their day. Not 9s.

I must have missed this! Really sorry to hear this Pete, didn't know it had even happened,
My car got the wobblies through the finish gantry a couple of times, until l got the chassis set up properly, so JUST low and big rubber is not the only answer!!! Although l must admit now l could, (but l don't!!!!!!!), let go of the wheel at the end at 125ish,

I have just added this picture to the Facebook "Drag Racers Saying Thank You " page; highlighting support for the NHS during this terrible time...

My crash in Julie's '67 Gasser Dart in 2009. 512ci Stroker and Tunnel Ram with Dana 60 and 4.56:1 gears.

The car was running 9.7 at the time of the crash but had yet to reach its full potential.


I see a few of our members have posted similar messages of support.

This car was pulling 138 mph in the Quarter at the time.

I seem to recall I took quite a bit of stick after the event!

WOW!

Before it touched down as per the picture it had already performed a perfect aerial 360+ degree Barrel Roll clear of the ground - that was the bit that hurt (neck strain).

There are other pictures around of it going backwards on the top of the wall near the banking - it nearly cleared the wall and ended up on the grass.

People took great delight of my standing next to an up-turned car with the "Autoglym - the perfect finish" caption in the background....

Ahem...

I do love life's ironies.

Glad you were safe though.
