My Friends Dragster

My friend bought the car in May. I did most of the fabrication that transformed it from a roller to a racecar. The goal was to get it to the track before the end of the 2011 season. We made it!

Great video but does not due it justice. I grew up in New Jersey and loved going to Raceway park in English Town. I remember the thrill of not only hearing the engines roar down the track but also feeling it in your chest. It had been many years since I had heard one of those nitro burning top fuel engines really close, then at the Good Guys shows they had several dragsters light up as the crowd is standing right beside them. It is very evident that there is a huge difference between the engines we build to have fun on the street and the ground pounders that are in these dragsters.
