[mikeedler]

came across these pics on the trifive forum. kinda hard to believe someone would do this, esp. on a drag car????
WTF?

this thing must have been built by a father of one of our fellow R3Vers.

The answer to the question: What would it feel like to drive a 700 hp loaf of lasagna?

I was trying to figure out why everything looked like a grater. then I realized. wow.

[Jafxod]

I cringed. How could you even wanna be in that thing going 140mph

Lol, buy 30000 ton car. Make it lightweight by drilling a ton of holes? Seems like there are easier ways to make that car lightweight... like not starting with that car?

surely the rules or sanctioning body wouldn't allow that?!?!! I know when I was racing, that sort of stuff was made clear in the rules......that you could NOT do hack stuff like that.

Wow, and only a roll bar, not even a full cage haha.

Titanium testicles compensate for all the missing metal.

Population control. Hicks gotta keep the number down somehow. Can't keep building onto the shack to house brother/sister offspring every year.

That seems pretty normal for 50's drag racing
