If I am not mistaken that is Beech Bend park in Bowling Green Kentucky. It is quite the experience to be sitting in covered bleachers when those things launch! The whole structure shakes!!😊

Yes it is. I love going down there. I also love that you can be down by the fence and that you can walk around in the pits

I like the nasty short wheelbased fuel altereds. Very cool.

Love the fuel altereds, Used to watch them at the old Irwindale racetrack in Southern California. Guys like Wild Willie Bourch, Pure Hell, Nanook, Pure Heaven, and lots of others. These are newer versions of course

My next door neighbor owned Pure Heaven ,I was part of the crew .One time at Irwindale we were racing Willie Borsch and we were pushing down to start when Willie veered over into the guard rail,he had that sleeping disorder narcolepsy,well that woke him up and he went ahead and ran the race.i don’t remember who won but I do remember the the in n out burgers in the pits,it was Harry the man who started in n out that flipping the burgers at tha t time

Watched one of these literally bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce down the track in Texas years ago. The announcer said the driver was definitely going to need a new, clean pair of drawers. There's a reason they don't run stuff like this anymore.

They do run this stuff still though.

Whoever was the first person to say, "I think a 40's Fiat would make an awesome drag car," should be in the hall of fame. Probably got some strange looks from friends at first. Look them up in image.

Hemi with the distributor in the back? BBC with Hemi heads?

@dr.hugog.hackenbush9443 5 ай бұрын

Early Hemis (331, 352 & 392)had the distributor in the rear. It moved to the front with the 426.

Unfortunately these are the new school longer wheel base altereds, not the short wheel base hand fulls that Wild Willie and the boys drove back in the '60's.

@taylorpinkney7253 5 ай бұрын

I disagree these are pretty close to the original

I hear you....most are but some are pretty period correct but I know where your coming from as that same scenario holds true to nostalgia funny car and top fuel....that's not what was represented in the early nostalgia movement.....don't you just laugh at what a burnout is in our world vrs. the modern world defintion
