This girl gets our vote for "Luckiest Kid in Town."
Here's a throwback to the '60s when rails like this were eating up the quarter-mile. Lots of teams that later became legends started out with highly competitive dragsters such as this one. Hope to see more like it.
Parrish, Florida's Brian Forrester campaigns this sharp dragster. We liked it and awarded him an Editor's Choice Top Ten Drag Car.
With all that red you don't need much chrome. This finely-finished Impala is a trendsetter.
The Classic Chevy folks brought out some great examples to show off on Manufacturer's Midway. They obviously have the right parts and know how to use them.
Camaros do appeal to the younger set.
Here are some Camaros that appeal to all ages.
Another purple car with a blower-very popular in Gainesville. This Bel Air is one-of-a-kind.
Great way to modernize a sedan delivery. This '57s graphics are from the "fin and flame" school of design.
Corvette's were out in force at Gainesville. Here are two that received Editor's Choice Top Ten Drag Car awards: Charles Shannon from Nashville, TN, with his '63 and Don Morrow who brought his '00 model from St. Petersburg.
Kevin Mangrum and the rest of his clan came down from Brighton, IL, to race this very sharp '77 Vega and were rewarded with an Editor's Choice Top Ten Drag Car.
If an SS 396 Malibu isn't one of your dream cars, you probably haven't driven one. This is a great example of a classic musclecar. Donnie Clark of Pittsboro, NC, is the lucky owner.
Look up supercharged big-block in the dictionary, and you'll see this picture.
