You know a front wheel drive drag race car is like a rare wheel drive car with the body on backwards...

Any more pics of that?

URY914 08-19-2006 03:03 AM

I found it on Samba and the only other pic was a side shot that didn't show anything good.

As long as we're on drag cars... Here's some pics I have floating around. The cars are not mine. They're from friends I had years ago.

not uncommon to drop a chevy in a Jag...my neighbor had one...although it was done out of neccesity rather than desire.

jag eventyally fell apart.

It's the only way to make a Jag semi-reliable.

Now if they could only do something about that Lucas electrical system....

What you don't see in the photo of the Jag is the full cage, narrowed 9" Ford, and wall-to-wall slicks. That's an 871 blower sticking out the hood. Under it is a 504 Chevy big-block.

The '64 'Vette uses the "low buck" approach. It's equipped with a 454 running a tunnel ram. Power is routed through a two-speed powerglide. Amazingly, It’s running the OEM four-wheel drum brakes. ('64 was the last year for drums.)

Here's my brand new '94 T/A at the track. 275 hp LT1 running through a ZF six-speed. It was quick for a new car, yet a bit of a slug in comparison to my friend's cars. Then again, I had A/C, and little to maintain between rounds.

How many recycled aluminum cans does it take to equal one 737?

Emile was a litttle disheartened to find out that his left rear wheel was going to beat him to the finish line.

I got up-close and personal with a few of those cars at the Monterey Historics last weekend.... I gotta say, the drivers who raced those death-baskets must have been completely insane. I wouldn't get groceries in one of those things!

dafischer 08-19-2006 07:20 PM

Those guys definitely had a bad balls-to-brains ratio. Pretty cool Bugatti, but not even a pair of goggles!
