Last weekend, Ant and I went to Dragstalgia at Santa Pod Raceway. It's a drag race meet for pre 80s cars and bikes. It was an awesome day out. The last time I went to drag racing I was a teenager... so it was just as I remembered it!
These funnycars were incredible. Sub 7 seconds. The Apache recorded a weekend best ET of 6.2 secs for the quarter mile. That is soooodamnfuckinfast!
Outrageous!
A wee Fiat with a big V8
There was a whole parking lot full of hot-rods, muscle cars and other cool stuff...
Super Bad Ass!
Another bad boy
I'm a bit of a Chevy guy
An awesome P51 Mustange display to boot
Old-timer drag-bikes...
...with a few twin-engined Triumphs too.
Don't mess with these supercharged souped up campers... they'll blow 99.9% of modern cars into the weeds!
Love the old slingshots with facemasks and retro backup girls
Piet Mondrian having a go
Lots of tyre smokin action...
... and then this old girl shat herself on the start-line. Is than my con-rod?
Angry!
One day I will have a pre '73 Camaro :-)
Camaro in a different guise...
Hot rod
I love the lines of the P1800 Volvo. I have this pipe-dream of giving one an engine transplant and give it some teeth... this is a bit overboard... but cool!
Beautiful Challenger
More rods
The apple or Ant's eye... there were quite a few awesome Chevy Bel Airs there... all were kitted out with big-blocks and huge rear tyres. Subtle... you had to look hard.
More Camaro badness
