Garlits is supposed to run his 'Lectric car at the gators. Would love to see him run 200 in it. Would be fitting to have the final between Shirley & Garlits. Oh yeah.....

Cliff,

I don't believe so, it will be there on display but it's my understanding that it will not run this weekend. But it possibly will at a National Event later this year.

Your Mustang? I guess I don't know what Mustang you're talking about, the one that lives with me isn't a her, he's a Stallion.

Fooey, was hoping he'd run it. Oh well... Alan, I was thinking that if you want a really cool car, get a Pinto wagon. Swap the engine out of the Stallion into the Pinto and you'd have a sneaky sleeper.

to me our heroes seem kinda neutered in Toyotas.....

I just walked over to look at them and I'm pretty sure I saw Garlits with a stocking covering his face tweaking around under the hood. They better make sure his doesn't have a blower on it come race day.

"Honest, I thought 85% would just clean 'er out a little!"

I guess this is what it would be like if they all decided to race their rent-a-cars before heading out to the airport...

WJ turned a 15.00. @ 93 mph. The quickest so far.

Didn't WJ say he could teach a monkey to drive

are they allowed to "tune" anything ? or have to drive them as delivered ?

Was that with or without the A/C on? even tho it doesn't matter.

That's a horrible thing to say as your son Kurt stands next to you holding his first P/S Wally....

I don’t know, it’s kind of embarrassing to put some of the biggest names to ever grace a drag strip in 15 second cars isn’t it? I love the idea but why not some modern muscle cars at least?

 

[Ice Bucket]

I appreciate what they are doing and hate to rain on the parade but why is BD in a white car?????

 

[stitcherbob]

Put me down for $20 on Garlits and 10 each on Prudhomme then Amato.

Why is Garlits' car not rat black I wonder.
Oh well, turn your keys or push the fob -

That was my first thought. [I'm not complaining but just curious] Did the drivers pick the scheme or was it someone at Toyota? I don't know how Big Daddy's car isn't black and Amato's isn't candy apple red.

You know, you sit in a white car once and it follows you forever...
